Quantitative CT‐Based Methods for Bone Microstructural Measures and Their Relationships With Vertebral Fractures in a Pilot Study on Smokers

ABSTRACT Osteoporosis causes fragile bone, and bone microstructural quality is a critical determinant of bone strength and fracture risk. This study pursues technical validation of novel CT‐based methods for assessment of peripheral bone microstructure together with a human pilot study examining rel...
