Opportunistic screening for osteoporosis using routine clinical care computed tomography brain studies.
Objective: Osteoporosis and falls are both prevalent in the elderly, and CT brain (CTB) is frequently performed post head-strike. We aim to validate the relationship between frontal bone density (Hounsfield unit) from routine CTB and bone mineral density from dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan for opportunistic osteoporosis screening.
Materials and methods: Patients who had a non-contrast CTB followed by a DEXA scan in the subsequent year were included in this multi-center retrospective study. The relationship between frontal bone density on CT and femoral neck T-score on DEXA was examined using ANOVA, Pearson's correlation, and receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis. Sensitivity, specificity, negative and positive predictive values, and area under the curve (AUC) were calculated.
Results: Three hundred twenty-six patients (205 females and 121 males) were analyzed. ANOVA analysis showed that frontal bone density was lower in patients with DEXA-defined osteoporosis (p < 0.001), while Pearson's correlation analysis demonstrated a fair correlation with femoral neck T-score (r = 0.3, p < 0.001). On subgroup analysis, these were true in females but not in males. On ROC analysis, frontal bone density weakly predicted osteoporosis (AUC 0.6, 95% CI 0.5-0.7) with no optimal threshold identified. HU < 610 was highly specific (87.5%) but poorly sensitive (18.9%). HU > 1200 in females had a strong negative predictive value for osteoporosis (92.6%, 95% CI 87.1-98.1%).
Conclusion: Frontal bone density from routine CTB is significantly different between females with and without osteoporosis, but not between males. However, frontal bone density was a weak predictor for DEXA-defined osteoporosis. Further research is required to determine the role of CTB in opportunistic osteoporosis screening.
期刊介绍:
Skeletal Radiology provides a forum for the dissemination of current knowledge and information dealing with disorders of the musculoskeletal system including the spine. While emphasizing the radiological aspects of the many varied skeletal abnormalities, the journal also adopts an interdisciplinary approach, reflecting the membership of the International Skeletal Society. Thus, the anatomical, pathological, physiological, clinical, metabolic and epidemiological aspects of the many entities affecting the skeleton receive appropriate consideration.
This is the Journal of the International Skeletal Society and the Official Journal of the Society of Skeletal Radiology and the Australasian Musculoskelelal Imaging Group.
