Abstract:
OBJECTIVES: Opportunistic quantitative computed tomography (oQCT) derived from non-dedicated routine CT has demonstrated high accuracy in diagnosing osteoporosis and predicting incident vertebral fractures (VFs). We aimed to investigate the cost-effectiveness of oQCT screening compared to dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) as the standard of care for osteoporosis screening. METHODS: Three screening strategies ("no osteoporosis screening", "oQCT screening", and "DXA screening") after routine...     »
