High-resolution peripheral quantitative CT scanner (HRpQCT)
HR-pQCT images of the distal radius and distal tibia (non-dominant, non-fractured limb) will be obtained using the XtremeCT device with standard protocols. HR-pQCT images wil be analysed with standard software and extended cortical measures software. This software identifies the periosteal and endosteal boundaries, enabling assessment of cortical micro- structural bone properties, including apparent cortical thickness (Ct.Th, mm), cortical tissue mineral density (TMD, mgHA/cm3) and cortical porosity (Ct.Po, %).
