Opportunistic Screening for Osteoporosis by CT as Compared with DXA

Opportunistic Screening for Osteoporosis by CT as Compared with DXA

Background: Osteoporosis is commonly evaluated using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) for bone mineral density (BMD). Non-contrast computed tomography (CT) scans provide an alternative for opportunistic osteoporosis assessment. This study aimed to evaluate screening thresholds for osteoporosis...
