Capabilities include:
- Semi-automatic contour tracing for the trabecular and cortical bone regions in the vertebra
- Semi-automatic determination of the regions of interest for the reference phantom
- Calculation of bone mineral content in mg/ml of calcium hydroxyapatite
- Graphics presentation of measurement results as compared to reference data.
