Cortical bone thickness of the distal radius predicts the local bone mineral density

AIMS: The distal radius is a major site of osteoporotic bone loss resulting in a high risk of fragility fracture. This study evaluated the capability of a cortical index (CI) at the distal radius to predict the local bone mineral density (BMD). METHODS: A total of 54 human cadaver forearms (ten sing...
