aSummaryThis study described a modified quantitative morphometry (mQM) system adapted to specific reference values for Mainland Chinese population. The mQM system is validated using the Genant Semiquantative system and is sensitive for detecting vertebral height changes and predicting cement leakage after percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in patients with osteoporotic vertebral compressive fracture (OVCF).IntroductionOVCF is a manifestation of osteoporosis. To improve clinical management of osteoporosis, the quantitative morphometry (QM) system has been widely used for the early diagnosis and precise classification of OVCF in developed countries. Here, we present an mQM system and validated its use in detecting OVCF in Mainland Chinese.MethodsUsing our mQM system, the pre- and post-operative values of vertebral heights were measured and evaluated in 309 Mainland Chinese who received percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) as OVCF treatment. Measurements and classification of fractures from the mQM system were validated by comparing to values obtained by the Genant semiquantative (SQ) method. Moreover, we evaluated the sensitivity of the mQM system by its ability to detect restoration of vertebral heights and predict cement leakage after PKP.ResultsThe five classification of fractures, No deformity (ND), anterior wedge (AW), posterior wedge (PW), biconcavity (BC), and compression (CP), evaluated by the mQM method shared similar distribution characteristics compared to those obtained by the SQ method. In addition, mQM evaluation showed that the vertebra height of all fracture types showed significant restoration after PKP. The incidence of cement leakage was most common in CP (37.5%), followed by AW (31.6%), BC (26.5%), ND (23.7%), and PW (0.0%).ConclusionsOur mQM system is suitable for classification of fractures, detection of vertebral height restoration, and correlation of cement leakage after PKP in Mainland Chinese population.
