It is of controversial discussion wether age-dependent loss of trabecular bone in the spine results in a preferential loss of horizontal trabeculae or not. This question is of substantial interest in regard to the biomechanical interpretation of histomorphologic data and therefore essential for the understanding of osteoporotic fractures of the spine. A review of the literature shows that most authors...
This article describes a new method to analyze the structural behavior of trabecular bone structure by means of noninvasive measurements of the three-dimensional cancellous bone architecture. For the noninvasive data acquisition, a high-resolution quantitative computed tomography system for peripheral measuring sites (pQCT) was used. With this system and the help of a multiple thin-slice measuring...
The vertebral bodies of the complete spine (C-3-L-5) were removed in 26 autopsy cases without evidence for primary or secondary bone disease (13 males aged 19-79 years and 13 females aged 17-90 years). A sagittal segment through the center of all vertebral bodies was embedded undecalcified in hydroxyethylmethacrylate and processed to so-called surface stained block grindings. Histomorphometric analysis...
