<p>An endcrinologist who is referred a lot of our osteoporosis patients, is consistently asking for the patients to be brought back (without charge) to have the forearm done. We have two Lspine vertebra to use in these most of cases, but there is increased uptake possibly c/w sclerosis or osteoarthritis that seems to elevate the BMD above the BMD of the femur readings. Or there is instrumentation of two vertebra, but not the other two. Should we include in our tech protocol instructions that they automatically do the BMD forearm if there is spinal instrumentation? or a set amount of increase in the spinal BMD over the femur BMD? The endocrinologist refers to the L spine in these cases as full of osteoarthritic changes. It was my understanding that we could not make that diagnosis off the BMD images. Thank you.</p>
