Clinical significance of trabecular bone score for prediction of pathologic fracture risk in patients with multiple myelomaDOI: 10.1016/j.afos.2018.05.003 Keywords: Multiple myeloma, Trabecular bone score, Fractures Abstract: Osteolytic bone lesions are common complications in multiple myeloma (MM), and can have an impact on quality of life due to the risk of fractures. Trabecular bone score (TBS) is a novel texture index derived from dual energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) of lumbar spine (LS) images that provides information about bone microarchitecture. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether TBS is useful in predicting bone fractures in MM patients
