The Correlation between Trabecular Bone Score and Lumbar Spine Bone Mineral Density in Patients with Normal and High Body Mass Index

Conclusion

TBS was positively correlated with BMD and decreased with age. The correlation between LS-BMD and TBS among patients varied depending on the BMI value. Further studies are required to determine whether the relationship between incident fractures and TBS also depends on BMI.
