Multi-ethnic evaluation and calibration of 3D-DXA femoral shape, density and FEA strength

Assessments of 3D geometry, bone density distribution and bone strength improve hip fracture risk prediction but currently require the use of computed tomography (CT). 2D-to-3D statistical shape and appearance model (SSAM) reconstructions from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) projections have been proposed as...
