Methods and materials

A 203-participant single-centre, non-randomised, prospective, study was carried out where wrist posterior-anterior radiographs and DXA forearm images were collected for every participant following informed consent (IRAS ethics reference: 23/YH/0089).

IBEX BH and DXA aBMD values were calculated at the ultra-distal (UD) and distal-third (TD) regions. Mean values are presented after confirming normality. Associations between IBEX BH and DXA were explored using linear regression and Pearson’s correlation. Precision mean error is reported and presented using Bland-Altman plots. Results were compared to previously published OFFER1 data from 257 participants, all aged over 50 [2,3]. Statistically significant differences between cohort were investigated for using unpaired t-tests.
