영문 초록

Bone mineral densitometry (BMD) is an important tool for diagnosing osteoporosis and osteopenia. However, as confirmed by several studies, imaging also serves as a significant tool in providing additional information about the patient. Therefore, radiotechnologists performing BMD tests should not overlook imaging information. Thus, the author aims to report abnormal findings near the left buttock in the BMD test of a 53-year-old woman who underwent diagnosis and resection surgery for breast cancer.
