| Abstract |
Vertebral fracture assessment (VFA) scanning is a useful tool to aid vertebral fracture identification. In this evaluation, we show that introduction of a comprehensive fracture risk assessment pathway incorporating VFA has enhanced diagnosis of vertebral fractures and improved targeting of investigations and treatment. |

Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 12 January 2013.
All research outputs
#18,325,190
of 22,691,736 outputs
Outputs from Osteoporosis International
#2,711
of 3,597 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#219,321
of 282,340 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Osteoporosis International
#23
of 33 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 22,691,736 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 3,597 research outputs from this source. They typically receive more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.6. This one is in the 17th percentile – i.e., 17% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 282,340 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 33 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 9th percentile – i.e., 9% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
