Fracture risk assessment without bone density measurement in routine clinical practice
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2012
Fracture probability assessed without bone mineral density (BMD) could potentially be sufficient for clinical decision making in many individuals categorized as low or high fracture risk. For individuals falling in a moderate risk range, there is incremental value in using BMD in the probability calculation as this appropriately reclassifies risk in over one third of the individuals.
