Although bone strength and fracture risk are generally assessed by measuring bone mineral density (BMD), the mechanical properties of bone are in fact determined not only by bone mass, but also by the architecture/geometry of the bone and by the intrinsic material properties of the tissue. Fracture risk increases with age, partly as a function of changes in BMD. However, the risk of fracture in a 75-yearold woman is 4-7 times that in a 45-year-old woman with an identical bone mass. This demonstrates that there is a component to bone fragility that is independent of bone mass, and determined by bone quality. This has been emphasized recently by the observation that anti-resorptive treatments for osteoporosis all have about the same fracture efficacy, though there is a seven-fold difference in their effect on BMD. Bone quality is defined by at least four factors: (1) the rate of bone turnover; (2) properties of the collagen/mineral matrix; (3) microdamage accumulation; (4) architecture/geometry of cancellous and cortical bone.
