Trabecular BoneScore
Trabecular Bone Score (TBS) is a measurement that provides insights into the quality of the spongy bone inside your bones, particularly in the hips and spine. Unlike traditional bone density tests, which measure how much bone you have, TBS assesses the structure and organization of the bone tissue, helping predict fracture risk more accurately. A higher TBS indicates healthier, better-connected bone structure, while a lower score suggests weaker, more fragile bones. It complements bone density results and offers a more comprehensive view of bone strength, aiding in early detection and management of osteoporosis.
