The triangle spanned by the three classical radiogrammetric bone indices. The W exponent increases in the horizontal direction and the L exponent in the vertical direction. The contours of the mean relative SDs of the Sjælland study are shown. The smallest value is obtained close to the middle of the triangle, where PBI resides. The 95% confidence limit for the optimal index is approximately equal to the 6.66 contour
