Volumetric bone mineral density at the spine and hip in Chinese American and White women
Abstract
This study evaluated racial differences in bone size and volumetric density at the spine and hip in pre- and postmenopausal Chinese American and White women. Compared with White women, Chinese American women have greater cortical volumetric bone density (vBMD) at the hip, congruent with the results at the peripheral skeleton. Chinese American women have lower rates of fracture than White women despite lower areal bone density. At the forearm and...
