“The dark-field signal was positively correlated with the BMD, both in vertical (r = 0.56, p < .001) and horizontal position (r = 0.43, p < .001).”

Dark-field signal predicts osteopenia/osteoporosis in humans (Cadaveric specimens imaged in vertical position) (AUC 0.80).
“For the differentiation between specimens with and without osteoporosis/osteopenia, the area under the ROC curve (AUC) was 0.80 for the dark-field signal in vertical position.”

Dark-field signal is associated with bone mineral density in humans (Cadaveric specimens; vertical and horizontal imaging positions) (Vertical: r = 0.56, p < .001; horizontal: r = 0.43, p < .001).
