Local Bone Mineral Density, Subcutaneous and Visceral Adipose Tissue Measurements in Routine Multi Detector Computed Tomography—Which Parameter Predicts Incident Vertebral Fractures Best?

Local Bone Mineral Density, Subcutaneous and Visceral Adipose Tissue Measurements in Routine Multi Detector Computed Tomography—Which Parameter Predicts Incident Vertebral Fractures Best?

In this case-control study the value of bone mineral density (BMD) at different vertebral levels, subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), and visceral adipose tissue (VAT) to identify patients with incident osteoporotic vertebral fractures in routine multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) exams was as...
