Comparison of Lumbar Muscle Thickness Measurements in Osteoporotic and Osteopenic Patients
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
In osteoporosis, sarcopenia is a common condition. Sarcopenic measurements can be made by evaluating muscle thickness in different regions. We aim to evaluate lumbar muscle losses in patients with osteoporosis in the lumbar region and to examine whether these muscle losses are correlated with the level of osteoporosis. The patients will be divided into 3 groups as healthy, osteopenic and osteoporotic according to DEXA measurements. Demographic values, comorbidities, osteoporosis drugs used, fracture histories, L1-4, L2-4, femoral neck and total BMD and t values of the patients, psoas and multifidus muscle measurements will be made at L2-L3 level in Lumbar MR imaging. Lumbar MR muscle measurements will be made by 1 physician blind to the DEXA values of the patients.
