  1. Values are Pearson's correlation coefficient.
  2. CSA: bone cross-sectional area, SM: section modulus, CTh: average cortical thickness, BR: buckling ratio, NN: narrow neck region, IT intertrochanteric region, FL: fracture load, SC: stance configuration, FC: fall configuration.
  3. *p<0.001.
  4. #Significantly different between HSA-DXA and CT-DXA (p<0.001).
