Bone mineral density (BMD) testing by central dual- energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the fundamental technology for the diagnosis, treatment, and monitoring of osteoporosis and is a useful adjunct in the manage-ment of other metabolic bone diseases (1–9). The CAR BMD guidelines are issued here as technical standards

The BMD-1 is a Soviet airborne amphibious tracked infantry fighting vehicle (IFV), which was introduced in 1969 and first seen by the West in 1970. BMD stands for Boyevaya Mashina Desanta (Боевая Машина Десанта, which literally translates to "Airborne Combat Vehicle"). [12]

2020年2月5日 · Central dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) of the lumbar spine and hips is the dominant method of measuring bone mineral density (BMD) and has 3 major objectives: diagnosing osteoporosis, estimating fracture risk, and monitoring BMD changes over time. 1 Audits have shown that reporting physicians may err in their interpretation of these categories ...

In 2005, CAR, in conjunction with the Scientific Advisory Council of Osteoporosis Canada, issued a set of guidelines for the reporting of BMD test results [1]. That document set down some of the principles to be used in performing BMD and the recommended content of bone mineral densitometry reports.

The hull of the BMD-4 bears a strong resemblance to the hull of the BMD-3 but with a number of innovations. The BMD-4 has a crew of three consisting of a vehicle commander, a gunner, and a driver. It can carry up to five passengers and is more spacious than the original BMD-1 …
