Mapping the Lumbar Spine Marrow Adiposity
- Conditions
- Marrow Adiposity Lumbar Spine
- Registration Number
- NCT02887716
- Lead Sponsor
- University Hospital, Brest
- Brief Summary
The objective of this study is to describe the change in the percentage of fat in the lumbar spine.
- Detailed Description
The study of the distribution of bone marrow adiposity is little known in subjects who did not have pathology likely to alter the fat content of the vertebrae. Or that fat content is potentially a reflection of brittle bones (osteoporosis, for example), and deserves to be known because it can be used to normalize the lipid fraction values with respect to age or from the level (L1 , L2, L3, L4 or L5) of the vertebra being studied.
