BMD (bone mineral density) classified by spine, total hip or femoral neck, T-score ≤ −2.5
Clinical fractures: spine or hip fragility fracture
Vertebral fracture identified by DXA-derived by vertebral fracture assessment or x-ray
FRAX-FN: uses femoral neck BMD with 10 year major osteoporotic fracture risk ≥ 20%, hip fracture risk ≥ 3%
FRAX-BMI: uses BMI without femoral neck BMD with 10 year major osteoporotic fracture risk ≥ 20%, hip fracture risk ≥ 3%
Heel ultrasound, T-score ≤ −2.5
