Abstract
:

This study investigated the potential role of quantitative ultrasound (QUS) to assess low bone mass in anorexia nervosa patients (AN). Bone parameters from QUS and DXA were positively correlated and significantly reduced in AN compared with controls, suggesting that QUS is a pertinent technique to assess low bone mass in these patients.
