Local and global microarchitecture is associated with different features of bone biomechanics

Purpose: Beside areal bone mineral density (aBMD), evaluation of fragility fracture risk mostly relies on global microarchitecture. However, microarchitecture is not a uniform network. Therefore, this study aimed to compare local structural weakness to global microarchitecture on whole vertebral bod...
