The patients were divided into three groups Group 1 was composed of 15 cases with positive HCV chronic liver diseases, group 2 was composed of 15 cases with positive HBV chronic liver diseases and group 3 was composed of 10 cases of normal control subjects. Bone densitometry and dual- energy X-ray absorptiometry [DEXA] scan proved to be the most valuable technique for the assessment of osteoporosis in patients with chronic liver diseases
