Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Evaluation of the utility of artificial intelligence analysis for opportunistic determination of volumetric bone mineral density and comparison to QCT-based measurements in the spine
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
1. To gain knowledge of the utility of algorithm-based opportunistic volumetric bone mineral density measurements compared to QCT-based volumetric bone mineral density values for differentiating between patients with vs. without vertebral fractures.<br>2. To analyze how the results of algorithm-based imaging data analysis differ from manual measurements by radiologists.
