Bone material strength is associated with areal BMD but not with prevalent fractures in older women

SUMMARY: Reference point indentation is a novel method to assess bone material strength index (BMSi) in vivo. We found that BMSi at the mid-tibia was weakly associated with spine and hip areal bone mineral density but not with prevalent fracture in a population-based cohort of 211 older women. INTRO...
