Abstract:
The diagnosis of osteoporosis is mainly characterized by reduced bone mineral density(BMD).Commonly used BMD examination methods are dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and quantitative CT,but their distribution is not enough.Routine clinical CT can also be used for BMD assessment,which mainly includes vertebral body CT values and BMD values obtained based on asynchronous calibration and internal calibration technology,which is expected to achieve opportunistic osteoporosis screening and fracture risk prediction.This paper reviews the application of routine clinical CT in assessing BMD of osteoporosis patients,in order to help clinicians and scholars understand the current status and future research directions of opportunistic osteoporosis screening.
