Usefulness of cortical thickness ratio of the third metacarpal bone for prediction of major osteoporotic fractures
OBJECTIVE: Patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) are at high risk for osteoporotic fractures. We developed an index called the third metacarpal cortical thickness ratio (CTR), which reflects bone mineral density (BMD) in RA patients. A longitudinal study was conducted to verify the usefulness of C...
