Overview
There are no echocardiography findings associated with osteoporosis. Quantitative ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of osteoporosis. Findings on an ultrasound diagnostic of osteoporosis include bone mass loss, mainly trabecular bone that is the major bone type involving in osteoporosis. Problems with DXA method have led to choose some methods with less harms and limitations, such as ultrasound (especially quantitative), which could diagnose osteoporosis with lower radiation, lower price, and also higher availability. Most common site of ultrasound application is peripheral parts, such as calcaneus and phalanges.
Echocardiography/Ultrasound
Echocardiography
There are no echocardiography findings associated with osteoporosis.
Ultrasound
- Quantitative ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of osteoporosis. Findings on an ultrasound diagnostic of osteoporosis include bone mass loss, mainly trabecular bone that is the major bone type involving in osteoporosis.
- Although dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the gold standard method for measurement of bone mineral density (BMD) and also osteoporosis, the limitations encountering its usage may decrease the application and increase the need to find another modality. The limitations of DXA include ionizing radiation exposure, difficult portability due to huge size, and high cost. These problems have led to choose some methods with less harms and limitations, such as ultrasound (especially quantitative), which could diagnose osteoporosis with lower radiation, lower price, and also higher availability.[1]
- The main place for application of ultrasound survey is calcaneus. The most important reasons that calcaneus was chosen include easy accessibility, suitable shape with parallel dimensions, and also containing about 90% of trabecular bones; with metabolic activity as much as vertebrae. It would be one of the best bone turnover identifier in the skeleton.[2]
- The ultrasound is used especially for quantitative measures, such as structural features and elastic properties which can not surveyed through densitometry; particularly in postmenopausal women.[3]
- Studies have revealed that ultrasound could provide really good properties, such as mineralized matrix distribution in bone and the bone resistance for heavy weights based on trabecular bones' characteristics (connectivity or thickness) and trabecular bones orientation, respectively.[4]
- On the other hand, it has been found that calcaneus ultrasound can predict any fracture in calcaneus, phalanx, radius, and tibia.[5]
- Another site with high percentage of cancellous bone is phalanx. When bone mass loss happened, the central cavities enlarged and cortical bones declined. Results of recent study have shown that phalanx ultrasound is a sensitive test for aging and also osteoporosis.[6] The sensitivity of ultrasound in diagnosing osteoporosis was very good.[7]
- There is more compatibility to use quantitative ultrasound in central sites of the body, which are main sites of the osteoporosis.
New methods
- Barkmann has invented the fist quantitative ultrasound device specific for femoral neck BMD measurement (i.e., Femur Ultrasound Scaner, FemUS). The device consists of two ultrasound transducers which is submerged in water, synchronicaly send and receive ultrasonic waves; monitoring the BMD measure as precise as DXA method. The main limitation of the device was probable sub-optimal function of transducers in various temperatures of containing water.[8]
- Recently, in Italy ultrasound has been used more in diagnosis of osteoporosis. In this method, primarily lumbar spine and femoral neck ultrasound scan was done; BMD, T-score, and Z-score concluded using an automated algorithm with application of both the echographic images and also the "raw" ultrasound signals. Then the concluded measures was compared to the DXA findings, showed correspondence of 86.1% in spine and 81% in femur.[1]
