Does (mis)use of industrial liquid silicone implants interfere with bone mineral density in transgender women?

ConclusionsIn transgender women with ILS implants, poor to moderate agreement was found on BMD when comparing lumbar spine/femur DXA with an alternative site to the femur, depending on using male or female database. These results may be artifactual and suggest using spine/forearm sites for more accurate DXA assessments in trans women with ILS gluteal implants.
