>1,200 peer-reviewed articles mentioning Trabecular Bone Score

The relevance of Trabecular Bone Score (TBS) has been assessed in a large number of scientific publications worldwide. In addition, over thirty national and international clinical guidelines recommend TBS as a crucial tool for the assessment and management of osteoporosis

This widespread interest for TBS supports our vision of elevating the standard of osteoporosis care around the world, by combining TBS with FRAX® and Bone Mineral Density (BMD) for a more comprehensive and insightful assessment of bone health. 

All clinical papers including TBS are publicly available in PubMed, however you will find below a small selection of scientific articles documenting the use of TBS across different musculoskeletal disease areas.
