Popis:	The prognosis of osteoporotic vertebral fracture was studied by MRI and X-ray findings. There were 7 males and 39 females with ages ranging from 58 years to 97 years. Both prominent type (mid-anterior margin of the vertebra is protruded) and retraction type (mid-anterior margin of the vertebra is retracted) who had severely compressed vertebral fracture in lateral roentgenogram on admission showed poor prognosis. In these two types, compressed vertebral fracture with change in intensity over the entire vertebra in MRI caused severe wedge deformity.
