Plain radiographs were obtained before and after the surgery. We used the vertebral body compression ratio (“VBCR”), i.e. the ratio of anterior vertebral height (AVH) to posterior vertebral height (PVH) with the formula VBCR = AVH/PVH. This resulted in a percentage which was used as a parameter for vertebral body height loss.
