According to the inter-individual variability of bone mechanical properties, subject-specific evaluation of the cancellous bone Young's modulus is needed to build finite-element models predicting vertebral strength with accuracy. Relationships based on the density assessed by quantitative computed tomography were proposed. However, quantitative computed tomography is not always suited for the analysis...
Summary We used a standard DXA device equipped with a C-arm to do in vivo reconstruction of human vertebrae from two orthogonal scans. This new technique, called 3D-XA (three-dimensional X-ray absorptiometry), allows the direct measurement of geometric parameters of the vertebrae with a good accuracy and precision. Introduction Geometric parameters are predictors of bone strength. A technique called...
