Third metacarpal bone mineral density assessment in the standing horse by dual X-ray absorptiometry

Bone mineral density (BMD) is correlated to mechanical properties of bone. In the horse, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) has yet only been performed ex-vivo, but a new portable DXA device would be ideal for in-vivo BMD measurement...
