Radio density of bone is measured in Hounsfield unit (HU) by a technique computed tomography, whereas bone mineral density (BMD) is measured by Dual-Energy X-ray Absortiometry. (DEXA) scan aimed at finding correlation between BMD and HU of human bones for their Torsional strength evaluation. In the paper femur bone undergoing both DEXA scan and CT-scan imaging were evaluated to determine if strength correlated with BMD and T-score. As value of BMD increases, the value of Z-score T- scores decreases and we get best method to find out BMD by error analysis between CT scan and DEXA. Aiming to find Torsional strength of human femur bone, test is carried out with the help of setup having rectangular frame work in which bone is hold by the clamp which is rotated by hydraulic motor.
