High-Risk Analysis of Vertebral Compression Fractures With Type 2 Diabetes Mellitus: Site-Specific Volumetric Bone Mineral Density

International Journal of Endocrinology
Conclusions: Vertebral compression fractures and the confusion between T2DM and vBMD may be all caused by the heterogeneous distribution of vBMDs. The higher risk of T2DM with vertebral compression fractures may be associated with the different loss rate

Compression fractures detection on CT [PDF]

SPIE Proceedings, 2017
The presence of a vertebral compression fracture is highly indicative of osteoporosis and represents the single most robust predictor for development of a second osteoporotic fracture in the spine or elsewhere. Less than one third of vertebral compression fractures are diagnosed clinically. We present an automated method for detecting spine compression
