True. But this is why my rheumatologist uses the baseline he took 4 years ago when I was 48 to measure density changes since then rather than utilizing the 25 yo values to calculate mine.  I'm not sure of the make and model number of the system he uses but it provides him with a printout and he plugs the information into a formula. |
