Researchers have uncovered a previously unknown substructure in bone tissue using a new X-ray technique to produce 3D images of the internal structure of bones. The discovery potentially questions ...

Developing an effective and robust system for deepening our understanding of the characteristics of the tissue, structure, mechanical properties and organization of bone at the level of the nanoscale, ...

DEXA scans—which stands for dual x-ray absorptiometry—measure bone density by passing a high- and low-energy x-ray beam ...

Osteoporosis and osteopenia, a precursor to osteoporosis, can easily be detected through the use of a scan called dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry, or DXA. The test is recommended for women 65 and ...
