The gold-standard resource for evaluating bone health in children
and adolescents, this practical and highly anticipated second
edition offers a comprehensive, fully updated resource for
addressing bone health in these populations. Developed by a
renowned international panel of experts in measuring and analyzing
bone density in the pediatric patient and reflecting the 2013
International Society for Clinical Densitometry (ISCD) Guidelines
for Pediatric DXA assessment, interpretation and reporting, this
indispensable reference covers all the important changes in the
field over the last 9 years. Some highlights of this edition
include: an entire chapter on the assessment of infants and
toddlers, a chapter devoted to the assessment of children with
disabling conditions, an in-depth discussion of vertebral fracture
and its etiologies, and a thorough review of the advantages and
limitations of densitometry techniques including DXA, pQCT, HRpQCT,
and MRI. New fracture prediction software, including Trabecular
Bone Score and Finite Element Analysis, is described. In this
edition, the limitations of DXA are addressed as are the most
recent strategies for handling them including proposed DXA
adjustments such as height Z-score. Solidifying itself as the
leading text in the field, Bone Health Assessment in Pediatrics:
Guidelines for Clinical Practice, 2nd edition provides all of the
critical basic analysis and evaluation tools, images, and
calculations necessary for clinical practice.
