Computed digital absorptiometry of the hand: screening method of bone loss in postmenopausal women with RA.

Dual energy x ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the most commonly used method of measuring bone mineral density (BMD); it has been shown to be a good predictor of the future risk of fracture.1Unfortunately, the generalised use of DXA is limited as it is expensive and time consuming, is not portable, and i...
