Is TBS different in healthy European caucasian men and women? Creation of normative spine TBS data for men
Journal Title: Біль. Суглоби. Хребет - Year 2014, Vol 3, Issue 15
Abstract
Trabecular Bone Score (TBS iNsight v2.1, Med-Imaps, France) is an index of bone microarchitectural texture extracted from antero-posterior spine DXA. Normative data for TBS are already published for French and US non-Hispanic White women elsewhere [1]. It has been observed that TBS values for all lumbar vertebral combinations decreased significantly with age. There was a linear decrease of 16.0 % (–2.47 and –2.58 T-score for US and French data) in TBS at L1–L4 between 45 and 90 yr of age. Microarchitectural loss rate increased after age 65 by 50 % (0.004 to 0.006) in both data set. The changes we observed in these American women are similar to that reported for a French population of white women (r2 = 0.99). However, no data exist concerning TBS in men.
