   For women, the cut off for the top 10% at highest risk is a 10 year risk of 11.1%. For men, the cut off for the top 10% at highest risk is 2.6%. The NOGG intervention thresholds are based on FRAX probability and thus cannot be used with fracture risk derived from QFracture or other calculators.

   Jul 3, 2014 · The debate around diagnostic criteria for osteoporosis in men hinges on whether reference BMDs from healthy women or men should be used and whether BMD measurements at one site or multiple sites should be considered. Women have lower BMD than men, so a diagnosis based on T scores derived from healthy women requires a lower absolute BMD than one ...

   How is osteoporosis diagnosed?

   • Traditionally, osteoporosis has been diagnosed based on bone mineral density measurements. However, bone mineral density is just one of many factors that influence bone strength and fracture risk, and most fragility fractures occur in people with bone mineral density higher than the standard threshold.

   • A female reference database should be used for the densitometric diagnosis of osteoporosis in men. FRAX is the appropriate tool for the assessment of fracture risk and as the basis for setting intervention thresholds in men with osteoporosis. FRAX-based intervention thresholds should be age dependent in men with osteoporosis.

   How is osteoporosis measured?

   • Osteoporosis is defined by the World Health Organisation (WHO) as a bone mineral density (BMD) of 2.5 standard deviations or more below the average of young healthy adults as measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) applied to the femoral neck and reported as a T-score.
