Abstract
Osteoporosis (OP) and its main consequence, the fracture is a worldwide public health problem. Fractures due to bone fragility typically occur in the hip, spine and wrist, although any bone can reach the skeleton. Measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) of these absorption sites per dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is currently the most acceptable method for the diagnosis. However, studi…

Abstract
Osteoporosis and it main consequence, the fracture is a worldwide health public problem. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is currently the most accepted method for the clinical diagnosis and assessment of fracture risk. However, this technology has limitations, thus, there is a need to study other methods for assess bone quality.Bone parameters obtained by high resolution peripheral…
