Evaluation of the XtremeCT Device for the Assessment of Bone

NCT01528423 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 180

Last updated 2012-06-15

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The research is intended to evaluate the short-term reproducibility of the XtremeCT device for measurements of peripheral bone density and bone structure in population-based volunteers from different age groups and to compare the XtremeCT with current peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) technology. The investigators will also assess the correlation between XtremeCT measurements of bone structure with hormones and biochemical markers of bone turnover.

Conditions

  • Peripheral Bone Density

Interventions

PROCEDURE

XtremeCT

The scanning protocol for each subject will be as follows: Non-dominant, non-fractured distal radius x 2 with repositioning between scans Non-dominant, non-fractured distal tibia x 2 with repositioning between scans using XtremeCT device and Non-dominant forearm x 2 with repositioning between scans Non-dominant lower leg x 2 with repositioning between scans using standard pQCT device
