Fractal-Based Analysis of Bone Microstructure in Crohn’s Disease: A Pilot Study

Fractal-Based Analysis of Bone Microstructure in Crohn’s Disease: A Pilot Study

Crohn’s disease (CD) is associated with bone loss and increased fracture risk. TX-Analyzer™ is a new fractal-based technique to evaluate bone microarchitecture based on conventional radiographs. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the TX-Analyzer™ of the thoracic and lumbar spine in CD pati...
