Prevalence of low bone mineral density in robotic-assisted TKA candidates: insights from quantitative CT analysis
Opportunistic screening using preoperative CT scans in robotic-assisted TKA patients reveals a high prevalence of undiagnosed low BMD, particularly among elderly women. Integrating QCT analysis into the preoperative workflow may facilitate early identification of at-risk individuals, informing surgical planning and enabling timely interventions to improve bone health.
