Smaller Radius Width in Women With Distal Radius Fractures Compared to Women Without Fractures

Introduction Bone mineral density (BMD) measured using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is typically used to assess fracture risk. However, other factors such as bone size and the forward momentum of a fall (a function of body size) can also potentially influence fracture risk, but are underst...
