Abstract
Up to 50% of the children had a low BMD. Children with IF have a significantly poorer bone health than the reference population, also after weaning off PN. Bone health assessment by DXA and DXR showed good agreement, especially for Z-scores ≤ −2. DXR assessment using BoneXpert software seems to be feasible for monitoring of bone health in children with IF.
