Abstract
Theoretically determined mass attenuation coefficients for different bone mineral substitute materials together with values for water and fat are tabulated. The use of hydroxyapatite as a synonym for bone mineral is proposed. The abbreviation BMA (bone mineral areal mass) is suggested for use in conjunction with the unit g/cm2. Suggestions are also made for other quantities and units for use in reports of bone mineral measurements.
