Title A name given to the resource Assesment of bone mineral density in X-ray images using image processing Subject The topic of the resource Bone densitometry; Bone mineral Density; DEXA; Osteoporosis Description An account of the resource X-ray application in medical fields has given rise to various research challenges related to bone, due to its wide usage in finding out the disease related to human anatomy. It has lot of research challenges to solve using available wide application of medical imaging techniques and inspired by this, a novel X-ray images based survey was conducted to understand the role of Xray images in medical field. Bone mass density identification is the standard procedure to monitor the risk of fracture in bone using DEXA. Lot of research has been carried out to calculate BMD using X-ray images and it provided prominent results. Since Xray is economically affordable and very economical compared to DEXA, we have decided to work on X-ray images. This paper explains us about various current advancements and disadvantages with respect to X-ray image in medical sector and various techniques related to BMD calculation. X-ray images characteristics and its fundamentals in the medical field for identifying bone related diseases are also discussed. 2021 Bharati Vidyapeeth, New Delhi.
