It was recently proposed that, for older East Asian women, the QCT LS BMD value equivalent to the Caucasian women's threshold of 80 mg/mL is about 45∼50 mg/ml. For a data of 328 cases of Chinese men (age: 73.6 ± 4.4 years) who had QCT LS BMD and DXA LS BMD at the same time and with the DXA BMD value of ≤ 0.613 g/cm<sup>2</sup> to classify osteoporosis, the corresponding QCT LS BMD threshold is 53 mg/ml. Osteoporotic-like vertebral fracture sum score (OLVFss) ≤ -2.5 has been proposed to diagnose osteoporosis. For 316 cases of Chinese men (age:73.7±4.5 years), OLVFss ≤ -2.5 defines an osteoporosis prevalence of 4.4%; to achieve this osteoporosis prevalence, the corresponding QCT LS BMD value is < 47.5 mg/ml. In the China Action on Spine and Hip Status study, a Genant grades 2/3 radiographic 'osteoporotic vertebral fracture' prevalence was 2.84% for Chinese men (total n = 1267, age: 62.77 ± 9.20 years); to achieve this osteoporosis prevalence, the corresponding BMD value was < 42.5 mg/ml. In a study of 357 Beijing older men, according to the clinical fragility fracture prevalence and femoral neck DXA T-score, the QCT LS BMD value to classify osteoporosis was between 39.45 mg/ml and 51.38 mg/ml.
