Further optimization of the validated vertebral bone quality (VBQ) score using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) may expand its clinical utility for bone mineral density (BMD) assessment. This study evaluated the correlations among cervical and thoracic VBQ scores, the validated Hounsfield Unit (HU) measured on computed tomography (CT), and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) values.
