Quantitative Computed Tomography (QCT) is popularly used for the diagnosis of vertebral osteoporosis. This study investigated the relationship between the diagnosis of fresh compression fractures in elderly patients with thoracolumbar spinal osteoporosis and bone mineral density (BMD) at QCT. We measured the QCT number in the vertebral bodies of 20 patients suspected as having fresh compression fractures of the thoracolumbar spine using CaCO3 phantom. In all vertebrae with fresh fractures, the QCT number was high in comparison with neighbouring vertebrae. The QCT number then was noted to decrease later on in the fractured decrepit vertebrae. QCT was a useful examination for judging whether vertebral fractures were new or old.
