  Osteoporosis remains underdiagnosed and undertreated despite established screening pathways. Many eligible patients are not referred for testing, and fracture risk is often misclassified when bone mineral density is assessed with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Routine CT examinations offer a chance to evaluate trabecular bone without additional imaging,...Read more

  Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) remains the most widely used imaging modality for assessing bone mineral density (BMD), playing a central role in diagnosing osteoporosis and osteopenia. Fragility fractures continue to impose a considerable burden on healthcare systems, so the importance of accurate diagnosis becomes more evident. DXA provides...Read more
