Bone Quality by vQCT and HR-pQCT:Translation to Multi-center Clinical Research

NCT01544660 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 60

Last updated 2014-04-16

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Our overarching aim is to set up a procedural, analytic and developmental framework to establish CT of the central and peripheral skeleton as a clinically useful biomarker for skeletal strength in the clinical research and ultimately in the clinical setting. To accomplish this, the investigators will develop and validate phantoms and scanning procedures to standardize strength and structure measurements between different vQCT scanners and develop standardized acquisition, analytical, and quality control techniques for HR-pQCT with an emphasis on optimization for multi-center studies.
