The trabecular bone score is a measure of bone texture correlated with bone microarchitecture and a marker for the risk of osteoporosis. Introduced in 2008, [ 1 ] its main projected use is alongside measures of bone density in better predicting fracture risk in people with metabolic bone problems.
Inside of a bone showing the trabecular structure A typical carcinoid tumor of the lung showing a trabecular pattern of elongated groups of cells.. A trabecula (pl.: trabeculae, from Latin for 'small beam') is a small, often microscopic, tissue element in the form of a small beam, strut or rod that supports or anchors a framework of parts within a body or organ.
Wolff's law, developed by the German anatomist and surgeon Julius Wolff (1836–1902) in the 19th century, states that bone in a healthy animal will adapt to the loads under which it is placed. [1] If loading on a particular bone increases, the bone will remodel itself over time to become stronger to resist that sort of loading.
Trabecular cartilages (trabeculae cranii, sometimes simply trabeculae, prechordal cartilages) are paired, rod-shaped cartilages, which develop in the head of the vertebrate embryo. They are the primordia of the anterior part of the cranial base , and are derived from the cranial neural crest cells .
Lower values represent varying degrees of suppression of normal bone turnover, sometimes also called bone remodeling or bone renewal." [ 1 ] Patients who are placed on a 6-month drug holiday exhibit marked improvements in their serum CTX values; in one study, patients showed an improvement of 155.3 pg/mL over 6 months or a rate of 25.9 pg/mL ...
There are five principal architectures of arachnoid trabeculae structures, whose shapes may be described as single strands, branched strands, tree-like shapes, sheets, and trabecular networks. [7] Some authors describe the structures in the subarachnoid space as having three forms, namely "trabeculae", " septa " and "pillars".
The trabecular arteries are the name of the branches of the splenic artery after it passes into the trabeculae of the spleen, where it branches. When these arteries then reach the white pulp , and become covered with periarteriolar lymphoid sheaths , the name changes again to central arteries (or central arterioles ).
