Abstract

The noninvasive assessment of BMD using a DQCT scan employing a low-dose protocol may be used to estimate expected primary stability depending on BMD, implant type and preparation procedure. These data may therefore help the surgeon to select the optimum implant position, implant type and operation technique.
