Combination of vertebral bone quality scores from different magnetic resonance imaging sequences improves prognostic value for the estimation of osteoporosis

This study confirms a significant correlation between VBQ_T1 and vBMD. The combination of VBQs from different MRI sequences enhances the prognostic value of VBQ for the determination of osteoporosis. While safe clinical application of VBQ for the determination of osteoporosis requires further validation, VBQ might offer opportunistic estimation for further diagnostics.
