The effects of architectural differences on the strength of cancellous bone of the vertebral body have not been clarified. This study was aimed at determining the influence of trabecular domain factor (TDF), a new histomorphometric parameter, on the maximum compressive strength (MCS) in vertebral cancellous bone. TDF is a variation coefficient representing the ratio dispersion of the area of each trabecula (Sd) to the area of its domain (D). A Voronoi diagram was used to determine trabecular domains. The materials comprised 35 lumbar vertebral bodies obtained at autopsy from 35 subjects aged 25-83 years. A mechanical test sample (12 x 12 x 16 mm) was cut out from each right half, and two large, undecalcified, horizontal sections from each left half. The fields (144 mm2 x 2) for image analyses were symmetrical with those for mechanical test samples in the other half of the same vertebral body. Bone volume (BV/TV), Sd, and D were semiautomatically measured. BV/TV correlated negatively with TDF (r = -0.73). Multiple regression analysis revealed the contributions of BV/TV (partial r = 0.75, p < 0.001) and TDF (partial r = -0.42, p < 0.02) to MCS. The model with BV/TV and TDF predicted MCS, 1.50 +0.15 BV/TV -0.03 TDF, more accurately (R2 = 0.83) than that with BV/TV alone (r2 = 0.79). We conclude that the bone volume primarily contributes to the MCS of vertebral cancellous bones but that the influence of TDF on the fragility becomes increasingly important as the bone volume decreases.
