Summary -Peripheral bone density measurements are scarce and the factors, which predict bone mineral density at these sites, especially in children, are not clearly known. In this study, age, height, weight and BMI had a significant association on peripheral bone mineral density in healthy Indian school children. Introduction- Factors that lead to the attainment of peak bone mass at peripheral sites, during period of growth are not clearly known. Methods- Hundred children are randomly selected 7- to 17-year-old children from govt. and private schools were assessed clinically and a recording of their height and weight was undertaken. Bonemineral density measured by ultrasound bone densitometer. at the calcaneum (BMDca).  Results -bone mineral density is assessed in correlation of following parameters:-When age wise BMD was analysed between both study groups, government school children had lower BMD values in both age groups (7-11 years, 12-17 years) and the difference between BMD in both age groups was  statistically highly significant (p 0.05) though government school children showed lower BMD levels as compared to private school children. Conclusion -age, nutrition, height and weight are significantly associated with BMD at peripheral sites. Keywords: Bone mineral density, Distal forearm, ultrasound bone densitometer, Socioeconomic status.
