Cortical and trabecular bone mineral loss from the spine and hip in long-duration spaceflight.
J Bone Miner Res. 2004; (6): 1006-12
We measured cortical and trabecular bone loss using QCT of the spine and hip in 14 crewmembers making 4- to 6-month flights on the International Space Station. There was no compartment-specific loss of bone in the spine. Cortical bone mineral loss in the hip occurred primarily by endocortical thinning.
