Impact of Magnetic Resonance Imaging on Treatment-Related Decision Making for Osteoporotic Vertebral Compression Fracture: A Prospective Randomized Trial

Abstract: BackgroundThe aim of this study was to analyze the impact and usefulness of characteristic signal change of a linear black signal on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) on treatment-related decision making.Material/MethodsForty-one patients with a linear black signal on MRI were enrolled in this prospective study. They were randomly divided into the percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) group (n=24) and the conservative treatment group (n=17). Clinical measures, including visual analog scale (VAS) and short-form 36 (SF-… Show more

“…9 Jin et al found similar outcomes for height and pain scores in a study published in 2018. 10 They determined that balloon kyphoplasty patients had greater improvement in pain scores, height restoration, and rate of bone union and lower kyphosis angles at 1-year follow-up compared to patients who had conservative treatment alone. 10 …”

“…The best access information could be obtained before operation. Therefore, the tunnel's quality is higher, and the terminate is closer to the weight-bearing area, and more overlapped with the OVCF area 9 . The balloon's expanding can lead to a better effect in the vertebra compression area, obtain better height recovery 10 .…”

“…Diagnoses were made by combining T1‐weighted images (T1WIs), T2‐weighted images (T2WIs), and STIR images in the sagittal plane. A fresh VF or old unhealed VF was diagnosed based on a low signal in T1WIs and on a high signal in T2WIs and STIR images in part of or the entire vertebral body, respectively, with particular emphasis on a high signal in STIR images . Otherwise, painful VFs were excluded.…”

“…A fresh VF or old unhealed VF was diagnosed based on a low signal in T1WIs and on a high signal in T2WIs and STIR images in part of or the entire vertebral body, respectively, with particular emphasis on a high signal in STIR images. (8,(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26) Otherwise, painful VFs were excluded. For example, a fracture was considered a healed fracture when a vertebral deformity existed and MRI signals were normal compared with those of the adjacent normal vertebrae.…”
