Osteoporosis in Parkinson's disease: Relevance of distal radius dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and sarcopenia

Osteoporotic fractures are common in Parkinson's disease (PD). Standard dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measuring bone mineral density (BMD) at the femoral neck and lumbar spine (central sites) has suboptimal sensitivity in predicting fracture risk in the general population. An associati...
