Description

Sriram Chandra Mallick and co-authors compare two scan types for bone density in women after menopause in a 2024 paper. One scan is cone-beam CT of the jaw, common in dental care. The other is DEXA, the standard test for spine bone density. The team matched jaw shape measures against DEXA T scores. DEXA scores proved robust for judging bone health and guiding treatment. Jaw scan measures alone did not replace the standard test in their data.
