Eksempler på brug af ABSORPTIOMETRY i en sætning

• Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA, or DEXA) is a means of measuring bone mineral density (BMD) using spectral imaging.
• The visits extended the initial dataset to include magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scans of brain heart and abdomen, as well as neck-to-knee volumetric MRI scans, whole body dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan of bones and joints, ultrasound measurements of the carotid arteries and resting 12-lead electrocardiogram (ECG).
• Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, or DXA (formerly DEXA), is a newer method for estimating body fat percentage, and determining body composition and bone mineral density.
• The gold standard measurement technique for the 4-compartment model consists of a weight measurement, body density measurement using hydrostatic weighing or air displacement plethysmography, total body water calculation using isotope dilution analysis, and mineral content measurement by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA).
• QCT enables spine BMD measurements on patients with scoliosis, which cannot usually be measured using Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA).
• However, T-scores were initially used as an estimation of the prevalence of osteoporosis across populations not to assess osteoporosis prevalence in specific individuals which lead to the National Osteoporosis Foundation and the International Society for Clinical Densitometry to consider using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) of the hip and/or spine as the preferred measurement diagnosis of osteoporosis.
• Instead of mathematical estimation the actual value of LBM may be calculated using various technologies such as Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA).
• Comparing BAI with "gold standard" dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) results, the correlation between DXA-derived percentage of adiposity and the BAI in a target population was R = 0.
• The hospital also has a full-fledged catheterisation laboratory (cath lab), computerised tomography (CT) scan, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, bone dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan, fluoroscopy and a one-stop health screening, occupational medicine and wellness centre.
• AACE is also working with interested stakeholders to advocate for a sustainable Medicare reimbursement for bone density scans done with a dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) machine and preserve patient access to osteoporosis testing, prevention and treatment services.
