Osteoporosis (OP) is associated with low bone mass and deterioration of bone tissue microarchitecture leading to increased bone fragility and fracture risk. There are increasing pieces of evidence that bone marrow adipose tissues (BMAT) play a significant role in the pathophysiology of osteoporosis. Our aim was to assess the proximal femur BMAT composition in OP without (OP) and with history of fragility fracture (OP-Fx) and compare it to naive controls using Chemical Shift Encoded MRI.
