Popis:	Biomechanical CT (BCT), i.e., quantitative computed tomography-based finite element analysis (QCT-FEA), promises an improved technique over bone mineral density (BMD) in predicting bone strength and the risk of osteoporotic vertebral fractures. However, most of the BCT models only consider a uniform compressive loading condition and they have not been validated for Chinese subjects. This study examined the ability of BCT to predict wedge fracture-related vertebral flexion strength in a cohort of Chinese cadaveric vertebrae. Twelve human vertebrae were scanned with dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and QCT to measure areal and volumetric BMD, respectively. To produce wedge fractures, the cadaveric vertebrae were experimentally loaded until failure under a 15
