BMC and BMD of the total body bone and lumbar spine were measured in normal control and patients with metabolic bone diseases by DPA (Dichromatic Bone Densitometer Model 2600, Norland corporation). Also, total body fat mass was measured in patients with obesity. We discussed basic technical problems and showed some data to assess patients with metabolic diseases known to affect the skeleton such as primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism. DPA is useful technique to assess patients with metabolic bone diseases and to monitor the efficacy of treatments.
