Chest scans helped detect hip osteoporosis in older adults

Chest-scan bone density at or below 85.4 milligrams per cubic centimeter helped identify hip osteoporosis when compared with standard hip scans.Chest-scan bone density at or below 85.4 milligrams per cubic centimeter helped identify hip osteoporosis when compared with standard hip scans.
