Abstract
High-resolution peripheral quantitative CT (HRpQCT) provides more detailed information than older methods. A new study shows that radial and tibial HRpQCT measurements are associated with incident fracture in postmenopausal women. However, it is unclear whether HRpQCT improves fracture risk prediction enough to justify its use in clinical practice.
