Comparison of Bone Mineral Density Measured by Dual X-ray, Axial Dual-energy Photon X-ray Absorptiometry and Laser Absorptiometry of Calcaneus
The objective of this study was to validate the use of bone mineral measurements of the calcaneus bone by dual X-ray and laser (DXL) in a cross-sectional study carried out in an osteoporosis clinic. Measurements of bone mineral density (BMD) at proximal femur and spine were obtained by dual-energy photon X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA). Osteoporosis was defined by a DEXA T-score <-2.5 at the femora...

متن کاملX-ray Energy Response of Mercury Cadmium Telluride Near-infrared Detector Arrays
A technique involving Fe X-rays provides a straightforward method to measure the response of a detector. The detector’s response can lead directly to a calculation of the conversion gain (e ADU), as well as aid detector design and performance studies. We calibrate the Fe X-ray energy response and pair production energy of HgCdTe using 8 HST WFC3 1.7 μm flight grade detectors. The results show t...
متن کاملInvestigation and Measurement of Ash Content of Coal in Zirab Coal Mine-Iran Using Dual Energy -Ray and X-Ray Fluorescence Methods
Coal with low ash content has an important role in the coal and steel industry. There are different methods to measure the ash content. The conventional method which is used in most coal mines of Iran, is to burn the coal and measure the remaining ash. A new method has been recently developed at Nuclear Research Center (NRC) of Iran, Which works on the basis of the absorption of the dual en...
متن کاملDual-energy x-ray absorptiometry in obesity.
48 CMAJ, January 7, 2014, 186(1) © 2014 Canadian Medical Association or its licensors Two patients with grade III obesity (body mass index [BMI] ≥ 40), a 31-year-old man (A) and a 26-year-old woman (B), underwent Roux-en-Y gastric bypass on vertical banded gastroplasty. Both patients followed the same nutritional and postsurgical approach. After 12 months, both patients achieved a similar reduc...
