Prediction of Incidental Osteoporotic Fractures at Vertebral-Specific Level Using 3D Non-Linear Finite Element Parameters Derived from Routine Abdominal MDCT

Prediction of Incidental Osteoporotic Fractures at Vertebral-Specific Level Using 3D Non-Linear Finite Element Parameters Derived from Routine Abdominal MDCT

To investigate whether finite element (FE) analysis of the spine in routine thoracic/abdominal multi-detector computed tomography (MDCT) can predict incidental osteoporotic fractures at vertebral-specific level; Baseline routine thoracic/abdominal MDCT scans of 16 subjects (8(m), mean age: 66.1 ± 8....
