Abstract

Osteoporosis is a disease that increases the risk of fracture. In this study, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was used to compare bone density according to the lumbar spine rotation and inclination. The results of the showed that the bone density decreases with the rotation of the lumbar spine, but the result was not predicted in the inclination of the lumbar spine. This is due to the change of the inclusion of lumbar spine in the area of the bone and the bone density due to the overlap between the lumbar spine 1 and 4. In other words, the Radiogical technologists needs to make efforts to prevent the rotation of lumbar spine and the overlap according to the inclusion to obtain the accurate bone density results.
