Prediction of osteoporosis and osteopenia by routine computed tomography of the lumbar spine in different regions of interest
2022-09-06
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> We aimed to investigate the utility of Hounsfield units (HU) obtained from different regions of interest in opportunistic lumbar computed tomography (CT) to predict osteoporosis coupling with data of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). Methods 100 patients who attended a university hospital in Shanghai, China, and had undergone CT and DXA tests of the lumbar spine within 3 months were in...
