The methodology of the bone mineral measurement from childhood through adolescence contains a few problems. Continuously growing child shows continuous enlargement of the bone and the difference in bone size exerts ineligible effects on the DXA value. Therefore, we should be careful to evaluate the value from the point of this view. This manuscript overviewed normal bone growth and problems in bone mineral assessment during childhood and adolescence.
从儿童期到青春期的骨矿物质测量方法存在一些问题。持续生长的儿童骨骼不断增大，骨骼大小差异对双能X线吸收法（DXA）值产生不合理影响。因此，我们应从这一角度谨慎评估该值。本文综述了儿童期和青春期正常的骨骼生长以及骨矿物质评估中的问题。
