Abstract
Introduction: The vertebral spine is the most common site for fragility fracture, which accounts for about one - fourth of all site fractures and two fold higher than hip fractures. Unfortunately, significant underestimation of vertebral fracture still is an important challenge for bone health management. Therefore, timely assessment of bone mineral density and vertebral fracture is strongly associated to bone health care in the clinical setting. This study investigated the prevalence of VF in general population using high- resolution CT chest or heart scan.
