Low heel ultrasound parameters predict mortality in men: results from the European Male Ageing Study (EMAS)

Background: low bone mineral density measured by dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry is associated with increased mortality. The relationship between other skeletal phenotypes and mortality is unclear. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between quantitative heel ultrasound paramete...
