Type 2 diabetes mellitus and bone fragility: Special focus on bone imaging

Fragility fracture rate is increased in type 2 diabetes patients despite of higher bone mineral density than non-diabetes control subjects. Vertebral fractures are usually asymptomatic; therefore, morphometric radiologic evaluation should be considered especially for diabetes patients. Bone quality...

Sumario:Fragility fracture rate is increased in type 2 diabetes patients despite of higher bone mineral density than non-diabetes control subjects. Vertebral fractures are usually asymptomatic; therefore, morphometric radiologic evaluation should be considered especially for diabetes patients. Bone quality may more contribute to the increased risk of osteoporotic fractures in patients with type 2 diabetes than bone mass. Hip geometry, cortical porosity, and trabecular bone score have been studied as bone quality parameters by imaging in type 2 diabetes mellitus.
