For several years, we have been exploring the factor-of-risk concept to understand the unique pathophysiology of vertebral fractures. Using computed tomography (CT) scans from the Framingham Heart Study, we have explored the relationship between spinal curvature, trunk muscle, and vertebral strength...

Working in partnership with USARIEM through the ARMI study, we investigate why some recruits are more vulnerable to stress​ fractures during basic training. Our research combines state-of-the-art imaging, physical performance testing, and biomarker analysis to pinpoint risk factors and guide...

Our research focuses on understanding musculoskeletal health, particularly in the context of aging, osteoporosis, diabetes (T1D and T2D). We employ advanced non-invasive and in vivo quantitative imaging techniques, along with ex vivo bone specimen analyses and preclinical studies, to assess bone and...

Although imaging is often used as a surrogate to evaluate bone fragility, direct measurements of mechanical strength are undoubtedly the gold standard for providing information about the mechanical integrity of bone. Our lab offers a variety of mechanical testing options for measuring the mechanical...
