Diagnostic concordance between the TBS and LS-BMD in classifying women positive or negative by analyzing women with and without fractures separately (K Cohen test).
| Women with Fractures | Women without Fracturs | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TBS Positive % | TBS Negative % | Total % | TBS Positive % | TBS Negative % | Total % | |
| LS-BMD Positive test | 48.8 | 18.6 | 67.4 | 27.9 | 14.0 | 41.9 |
| LS-BMD negative test | 23.3 | 9.3 | 32.6 | 17.1 | 41.0 | 58.1 |
| Total | 72.1 | 27.9 | 100 | 45.0 | 55.0 | 100 |
K Cohen for the women with fractures = 0.010 (poor concordance). K Cohen for the women without fractures = 0.367 (poor concordance).
