Mar 1, 2017 · The DXR technique seems to be able to quantify RA-related periarticular bone loss as a characteristic feature in the course of RA as a reliable diagnostic approach comparable to erosions and joint space narrowing in the diagnosis of RA. Digital X-ray radiogrammetry (DXR) is a computer-assisted diagnosis technique for quantifying cortical hand bone mineral density (BMD) as well as the ...
DOI: 10.1016/j.bone.2016.02.011 Corpus ID: 2162881; Digital X-ray radiogrammetry in the study of osteoporotic fractures: Comparison to dual energy X-ray absorptiometry and FRAX.
Digital X-ray radiogrammetry (DXR) uses the principles of this long-established method but applies more sophisticated methodology to overcome these problems. The aims of this study were to (a) investigate the effects of radiographic technique on bone mineral density (BMD) measurement by DXR, (b) compare DXR to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry ...
The ability of hand digital X-ray radiogrammetry to identify middle-aged and elderly women with reduced bone density, as assessed by femoral neck dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. J Clin Densitom. 2010; 13 (4):418–425. doi: 10.1016/j.jocd.2010.07.005.
Aug 26, 2005 · In contrast, Sharp scores significantly correlated with AGA, swollen and tender joint counts, VAS pain, HAQ, and 28 joint count disease activity score (DAS28) but with low r values of around 0.17–0.30 (p = 0.043–0.01). Sharp scores correlated slightly better with the HAQ than did DXR ( r = +0.298, p<0.005).
Jun 29, 2017 · Digital X-ray radiogrammetry combined with semiautomated analysis of joint space widths as a new diagnostic approach in rheumatoid arthritis: a cross-sectional and longitudinal study. Arthritis Rheum 2005; 52 :3850–9. 10.1002/art.21606 [ PubMed ] [ CrossRef ] [ Google Scholar ]
Digital X-ray radiogrammetry is a method for measuring bone mineral density (BMD). Digital X-ray radiogrammetry is based on the old technique of radiogrammetry. In DXR, the cortical thickness of the three middle metacarpal bones of the hand is measured in a digital X-ray image. Through a geometrical operation the thickness is converted to bone ...
