Recently, I had a question about what the difference is between bone thickness as shown on a dexa scan and bone quality. This is an important topic to understand and in this video we are going to talk about the difference between bone density and bone quality and how they affect bone strength.
Bone thickness and bone strength are not the same thing. They can go together, but they don’t always go together. Bone thickness is easier to measure than bone strength, but when you increase the strength in your body you will also improve your bone strength.
