Correlation Between Bone Mineral Density And Different Types of Modic Changes in Lumbar Spine.
Introduction: Modic changes (MCs) are a common manifestation of lumbar degenerative disease, classified into three types. However, the relationship between Bone Mineral Density (BMD) and each type of MC at the vertebral lesion sites remains unclear.
Methods: This study included 144 patients who had both lumbar MR and CT images. The classification and grading of MCs were evaluated using MR images. On the CT images, BMD values, T-scores, and Z-scores were obtained from the normal T12 vertebrae, the corresponding lumbar Modic lesion sites, and the adjacent healthy regions at the same vertebra on the axial plane.
Results: A total of 370 vertebrae (226 MCs and 144 normal T12 vertebrae) were assessed. No significant difference was found in the BMD of normal T12 vertebrae between males and females in the study. MCs were more commonly found in the lumbar 4 and 5 vertebrae. Of the MCs, 80 (36%) were classified as type I, 130 (57%) as type II, and 16 (7%) as type III. The BMD value, T-score, and Z-score of each Modic type lesion site were higher than those of adjacent healthy regions and normal T12 vertebrae. A strong correlation was found between the different Modic types, though no significant differences were observed between grades within the same Modic type.
Conclusion: The presence of any MCs was significantly associated with an increase in BMD in the corresponding lesion sites, with more severe MCs showing a stronger association with higher BMD. This is the first study to explore the relationship between all types of MCs and their BMD values.
