Abstract
Bone mineral density (BMD) determination has been performed in 210 sel ected Shanghai residents of both sexes of age range 15-50 using Hologi c QDR-2000 dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DMA). The results showed that in female groups the peak value of L1-L4 BMD was 1.023 g/cm(2) at the age of 31-35, but in the male groups it was 0.971 g/cm(2) aged 26 -30 and the peak period lasted till the group aged 46-50. The similar conclusion has also obtained by further statistics.
