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 ...

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 ...

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.

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.

Vertebral compression fractures
British Journal of Hospital Medicine, 2018This review gives a practical guide to the investigation and management of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures. With an ageing population, the burden of disease and health system costs attributable to this common injury continue to rise. This article outlines the epidemiology, clinical and radiological assessment of vertebral compression ...

Vertebral Fracture Identification
Seminars in Musculoskeletal Radiology, 2016When bone becomes frail due to metabolic disorders, one or more vertebral fractures (VFs) may occur. A vertebral body fracture after minor trauma is a hallmark of osteoporosis. VFs represent a target in clinical practice and are often an endpoint in clinical trials.
