Evaluation of bone mineral density of the lumbar spine using a novel phantomless dual-energy CT post-processing algorithm in comparison with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry

BACKGROUND: Current techniques for evaluation of bone mineral density (BMD) commonly require phantom calibration. The purpose of this study was to evaluate a novel algorithm for phantomless in vivo dual-energy computed tomography (DECT)-based assessment of BMD of the lumbar spine in comparison with...
