Automated Opportunistic Trabecular Volumetric Bone Mineral Density Extraction Outperforms Manual Measurements for the Prediction of Vertebral Fractures in Routine CT

Opportunistic osteoporosis screening using multidetector CT-scans (MDCT) and convolutional neural network (CNN)-derived segmentations of the spine to generate volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) bears the potential to improve incidental osteoporotic vertebral fracture (VF) prediction. However, th...
