Description: The dataset “osseus_dataset.csv” (Table 1) contains elementary data related to risk factors and examinations performed by individuals in Rio Grande do Norte, Brazil, to investigate bone mineral density. Data were collected using the EPR of HUOL/UFRN, DXA, and OSSEUS, a low-cost device based on electromagnetic waves, which measures the attenuation of the signal when crossing the medial phalanx of the middle finger (PINHEIRO et al., 2021, ALBUQUERQUE et al., 2022).

Descrição: O conjunto de dados “osseus_dataset.csv” (Tabela 1) contém dados elementares relacionados a fatores de risco e exames realizados por indivíduos no Estado do Rio Grande do Norte, Brasil, para a investigação da densidade mineral óssea. Os dados foram coletados por meio do EPR do HUOL/UFRN, DXA e OSSEUS, um dispositivo de baixo custo baseado em ondas eletromagnéticas, que mede a atenuação do sinal ao atravessar a falange medial do dedo médio (PINHEIRO et al., 2021, ALBUQUERQUE et al., 2022).
