Bone evaluation method

摘要: A method for evaluating bone comprising the steps of: (a) determining a pattern (i) by measuring photodensity of an X-ray photograph from long shank bone limb or (ii) photon absorption metory long limb; (b) smoothing and symmetrizing the to modify same; (c) at least one index selected group consisting cortical width (MCI), (D), maximum density (GSmax), minimum (GSmin), mineral content (ΣGS), average (ΣGS/D ΣGS/D²); (d) based on at one index. The evaluation also can be carried out deter­ mining distribution, modified pattern obtained above, setting model having elliptic cross-sectional external shape, zonate cortex, decreasing portion in inside cortex. further out first obtaining patterns plurality por­ tions constant distance and, then, distribution each modified above-­ mentioned portion. distribution is classified, color, values, image metory converted distribution.
