Normal values of bone mineral composition were defined, based on examinations of 600 male and female volunteers of various age groups by digital roentgenodensitometry. The mineral compactness was found reduced in the patients with endocrine diseases, in subjects who participated in liquidation of the Chernobyl power plant accident aftereffects, and in those suffering from skeletal pains. The authors emphasize the value of digital roentgenodensitometry as a method for monitoring the efficacy of treatment of patients with endocrine diseases and chronic renal insufficiency.
