Cervical Vertebral Trabecular Bone Mineral Density in Great Danes With and Without Osseous‐Associated Cervical Spondylomyelopathy
BACKGROUND Great Danes (GDs) with osseous-associated cervical spondylomyelopathy (CSM) have osteoarthritis (OA) of the cervical vertebrae. OA is often associated with increases in bone mineral density (BMD) in people and dogs. HYPOTHESIS/OBJECTIVES To compare the trabecular BMD of the cervical vertebrae between clinically normal (control) GDs and GDs with osseous-associated CSM by using compu...
متن کاملCervical spine bone mineral density as a function of vertebral level and anatomic location.
BACKGROUND CONTEXT Bone mineral density (BMD) measurements acquired from quantitative computed tomography scans have been shown to correlate with bone mechanical properties such as strength, stiffness, and yield load. There are currently no reports of BMD as a function of anatomic location within each vertebra. PURPOSE The overall objective of this study was to characterize BMD in the cervica...
متن کاملAsymptomatic vertebral fractures in patients with low bone mineral density.
OBJECTIVE Vertebral fracture assessment (VFA) is a test technique that can be used to detect asymptomatic vertebral fractures (AVF). It uses dual energy X-ray bsorptiometry (DXA) and can be performed concurrently with bone densitometry. This study aims to assess the prevalence of AVF in patients with low bone mass. METHODS Cross-sectional study including 135 individuals with low bone mineral ...
متن کاملVariation in Lumbar Vertebral Pedicle Structure with Bone Mineral Density
Introduction: Despite widespread use of pedicles in lumbar spine fixation, relatively little is known regarding variations in pedicle structure particularly in osteoporosis. It is valuable to understand this relationship because pedicles provide an important area for screw fixation and a point of complication when screws penetrate through weak pedicle walls into adjacent structures. Hirano et a...
متن کاملBone density assessment for evaluation of gender differences in cervical vertebral maturation: A computed tomography study
INTRODUCTION The cervical vertebral maturation (CVM) method is a vital tool for assessing the biological maturation of the orthodontic patient to evaluate the amount of mandibular bone growth left. AIM To assess and visualize the cervical vertebral morphology (bone density) of orthodontic patients of the age group 9,16,27 years. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty four subjects with age group of 9,...
