Muscle density discriminates hip fracture better than computed tomography X‐ray absorptiometry hip areal bone mineral density

BACKGROUND: Muscle weakness is a key factor in the increase risk of falls and might also play a significant role in the increase of risk of hip fracture. Computed tomography‐measured muscle size and muscle density are well‐established imaging biomarkers used in studies of physical function, frailty...
