The methods of radiological diagnostics of the osseous tissue of the lower extremities in patients with chronic arterial insufficiency caused by type II diabetes mellitus are analyzed in the article. Etalon densitometry and a multidetector computed tomography were found to have the highest sensitivity, specificity and correlation. Dual-energy X-ray densitometry has a weak correlation with the above mentioned methods and low rates of sensitivity and specificity respectively.
