Vertebral fracture: epidemiology, impact and use of DXA vertebral fracture assessment in fracture liaison services [PDF]
Osteoporosis International, 2021 Summary: Vertebral fractures are independent risk factors for vertebral and nonvertebral fractures. Since vertebral fractures are often missed, the relatively new introduction of vertebral fracture assessment (VFA) for imaging of the lateral spine during

Mild morphometric vertebral fractures predict vertebral fractures but not non-vertebral fractures
Osteoporosis International, 2013 In this meta-analysis of the control arms of four phase 3 trials, mild vertebral fractures were a significant risk factor for future vertebral fractures but not for non-vertebral fracture.A prior vertebral fracture is a risk factor for future fracture that is commonly used as an eligibility criterion for treatment and in the assessment of fracture ...

Epidemiology of Vertebral Fractures
Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2016Vertebral fractures are one of the most common fractures associated with skeletal fragility and can cause as much morbidity as hip fractures. However, the epidemiology of vertebral fractures differs from that of osteoporotic fractures at other skeletal sites in important ways, largely because only one quarter to one-third of vertebral fractures are ...

Diagnosis of Vertebral Fractures by Vertebral Fracture Assessment
Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 2006Vertebral fractures are independent risk factors for both vertebral and peripheral fractures and only one-third of these fractures come to clinical attention. Vertebral fracture assessment (VFA) is a radiographic method using dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to assess vertebral deformities during bone density measurement.

Radiologic Clinics of North America, 2010
Vertebral fractures are usually the first to occur in osteoporosis, provide indisputable evidence of reduced bone strength, and are frequently a harbinger of further vertebral and nonvertebral fracture. Radiologists are best placed to draw attention to the presence of vertebral fractures, most of which are clinically silent.

Biomechanics of Vertebral Fractures and the Vertebral Fracture Cascade
Current Osteoporosis Reports, 2010Vertebral fractures (VFxs) are the most common osteoporotic fracture, and are a strong risk factor for future fracture. The presence of a VFx greatly increases the risk of sustaining subsequent VFxs-a phenomenon often referred to as the "vertebral fracture cascade." VFxs do not occur uniformly along the spine, but occur more often at the mid-thoracic ...

Detection of vertebral fractures
Current Osteoporosis Reports, 2005Despite the importance of vertebral compression fractures, there is much that remains uncertain. There is no "gold standard" for the definition which has led to epidemiologic and study differences. Height loss is a way to suspect vertebral fractures but it has its own issues.
