“…Arguing on such grounds, Lopes et al (2009) reached an analogous conclusion that supports the theory that evaluation of the bilateral hips with the lumbar spine seems to be more appropriate BMD measure for identifying elderly women with risk factors for osteoporosis. Similarly, in the cross-sectional study of Alele et al (2009) the prevalence of significant left-right hip bone mineral density difference among white and black women was examined, in order to find out implications on the diagnosis of osteoporosis.…”

“…Several studies have been conducted on subjects with different race [ 9 ], sex [ 10 ], age [ 11 ] to justify the requirement of scanning one or both femurs for assessing osteoporosis to predict hip fracture [ 12 , 13 ]. A number of studies have shown a significant correlation between the two hip BMD measurements at femoral neck of normal Chinese women [ 6 ], and the Caucasian women of age above 65 years [ 8 ].…”
