The diagnostic cutoff value of vertebral bone quality score for osteoporosis is significantly influenced by the magnetic field in patients undergoing lumbar surgery
The VBQ 1.5 T has a significantly higher cutoff value for osteoporosis than the VBQ 3.0 T in patients undergoing lumbar surgery. It is essential to mention the magnetic resonance (MR) field when applying the VBQ score in the screening of osteoporosis.
