Quantitative ultrasound examination | Bone Density Measurement
Quantitative ultrasound examination The third and last option for bone density measurement is quantitative ultrasound (QUS), in which ultrasound waves are sent through the body instead of X-rays. As a result, the radiation exposure in this procedure is zero. Ultrasound waves are also attenuated to varying degrees by tissue of varying density and can therefore … Quantitative ultrasound examination | Bone Density Measurement
