Relation of Reproductive Factors and Heel Quantitative Ultrasound Parameters in Normal Women of Tehran

Show other versions (1)

Quantitative Ultrasound (QUS) is a noninvasive, inexpensive and portable method for bone densitometry. It may measure some other parameters in addition to BMD, like elasticity and micro architecture. This study designed to determine the relation between reproductive factors and calcaneus QUS paramet...
