Findings of CT-Derived Bone Strength Assessment in Inflammatory Bowel Disease Patients Undergoing CT Enterography in Clinical Practice

Abstract

Using BCT, increased or high fracture risk was detected in more than half of this cohort, the prevalence being associated with increased age. A significant proportion of patients with increased or high fracture risk did not meet Cornerstone guidelines. Therefore, IBD patients who do not meet Cornerstone guidelines may benefit from BCT screening.
