[Osteoporosis--a diagnostic problem in geriatric consultation].
On the basis of x-ray morphometric examinations employing 2,500 x-ray photographs age- and sex-specific standard value curves of the bone mineral content are ascertained for the methods by Singh, Saville and Barnett/Nordin. Evaluations leads to the refusal of the wide clinical application of these methods. The combined application of these methods with microradioscopy employed in the forefield diagnostics of demineralizing skeleton diseases is possible only with proviso.
