Abstract

The aim of the research was the determination of indices of mineral density of the spongy substance, mineral density of the cortical layer and also the cortical index according to the data of X-ray densitometry in infants at norm and at hip joint dysplasia.

Materials and methods. Using the developed program „OsteoGraf-child”, there was carried out the analysis of x-ray photographs of hip joints of 56 children 0 days - 3 years old, suspected in trauma or HJD.

Results of research. „OsteoGraf-child” program for the diagnostics of structural changes of a femur at norm and at hip joint dysplasia in infants allows to determine indices of the femur mineral density, for the spongy and compact substances separately, and to calculate the cortical index.

Conclusions. Indices of the age norm of the mineral density of the spongy substance and femur cortical layer were established that allows to estimate objectively the bone tissue status in infants. At the conservative treatment of hip joint dysplasia using the long-term immobilization was detected the reliable decrease of indices of the spongy substance and cortical layer mineral density in infants of 6–12 months that needs a treatment correction
