This narrative review synthesizes recent advances across radiography, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), focusing on AI-driven methods for automatic extraction of bone quality markers.
INTRODUCTION
Reduced bone mineral density and degeneration of bone microarchitecture are hallmarks of Osteoporosis, a degenerative skeletal condition that raises the risk of fractures. Due to the subjective nature of conventional radiography assessment and the potential for inter-observer variability, early diagnosis a...

It is demonstrated that opportunistic osteoporosis screening from routine hip radiographs, combined with domain-aware preprocessing and transfer learning, can potentially provide a scalable and cost-effective alternative for wider osteoporosis risk stratification in resource-limited settings.

ABSTRACT Bisphosphonates remain the pharmacological standard of care for osteoporosis; however, their clinical efficacy is limited by significant diagnostic gaps, heterogeneous therapeutic responses, and persistent concerns regarding long‐term safety, including medication‐related osteonecrosis of the jaw (MRONJ) and at...
It is indicated that AI can achieve high diagnostic accuracy in controlled, often single-centre retrospective settings, but its performance consistently declines for mild fractures, degenerated spines, and postoperative anatomy.
