Reduced bone strength is associated with a loss of bone mass, usually evaluated by dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry, although it is known that the bone microstructure also affects the bone strength. Here, a method is proposed to measure (in laboratory) the bone volume–to–total volume ratio by single‐sided NMR scanners, which is related to the microstructure of the trabecular bone.
