Clinical Utility of Using Lumbar Spine Trabecular Bone Score to Adjust Fracture Probability: The Manitoba BMD Cohort
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2017 at "Journal of Bone and Mineral Research"
DOI: 10.1002/jbmr.3124
Abstract: Decreased lumbar spine trabecular bone score (TBS), a dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA)‐derived image texture measurement, is a risk factor for major osteoporotic fracture (MOF) and hip fracture (HF) independent of 10‐year fracture probability estimated using… read more here.
