Testing a new ultrasound device for bone density
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Hormones & metabolism, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests a new ultrasound device (POROUS R4C) to see if it can accurately estimate bone mineral density. If it works well, it could offer a quick, radiation-free way to check bone health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study checks if a new computer program can find people at risk for osteoporosis more easily, using CT scans you already had. If you are found to be high risk, you'll get a free bone density test (DXA) to confirm, and help improve this tool.
This study looks at how well your bones and muscles work together. By measuring your bone density and handgrip strength, doctors can better understand your bone health and find ways to keep you strong as you age.
This study looks at bone health in people over 50 who have had a low-impact fracture in the last two years but do not have osteoporosis. It will help doctors better understand who might need treatment to prevent future breaks.
This study looks at simpler ways to measure bone density from routine CT scans of the lower back or abdomen. If you are already getting a CT scan, the researchers will use those images to check your bone health without extra tests or radiation.
This study tests a structured bone health improvement program for adults over age 40 who are attending a health checkup at the hospital. It aims to improve or maintain bone strength, using bone density measurements as part of the study.
This trial uses scans like X-rays, CT, or MRI to study how bones and joints age. It aims to understand aging-related problems and may help develop better ways to detect or treat them.
