Hip muscle radiodensity measured using computed tomography is associated with femoral density and proximal femoral fracture status in an elderly population: a retrospective case–control study

Abstract Background Preventing proximal femoral fractures in older adults is of paramount importance. In clinical practice, bone mineral density measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is the reference standard for assessing skeletal fragility, whereas muscle is rarely quant...
