Children and young adults may have decreased cortical thickness with maintained overall mineral density after renal transplantation. The findings of phalangeal quantitative ultrasound parallel observations using other imaging techniques. Phalangeal quantitative ultrasound may be a useful method to assess bone alternations after renal transplantation.
