This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.
The purpose of the study is to assess precision of the GE Lunar iDXA, Hologic Horizon W DXA scanner, and the Stratec peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) scanner. Aim 1: To assess standard deviation (SD) and coefficient of variation (CV) of testing bone mineral, bone geometry, and soft tissues in inanimate objects and adults. Tests on adults will be structured to assess: 1. Within- and between-day variability of testing 2. Within- and between-technician variability of testing 3. Variability due to positioning and post-scan processing 4. Variability due to different DXA scanning equipment Aim 2: To assess the least significant change (LSC) for testing bone mineral and soft tissues in adults. Aim 3: To assess strengths and limitations of DXA and pQCT testing, including sensitivity to movement, rate of re-rescanning, etc. which are crucial components for demonstrating feasibility in grant applications. Aim 4: To construct a database of DXA and pQCT test results and quality control procedures, showing our laboratory's quality control level.
Precision and Reliability of Dual X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) Testing
Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.
