Quantitative computed tomography precision and accuracy for long-term follow-up of bone mineral density measurements: a five year in vitro assessment

The purpose of this work was to test the long-term precision of quantitative computed tomography (QCT) on a CT scanner partly used for the measurement of bone mineral density (BMD). A spine phantom (ESP), which simulates three lumbar vertebrae (Li, i = 2-4) with given mineral densities of 50, 100, a...
