Can anyone tell me how a vertebroplasty procedure done in Oct ‘24 at T12 with a 50% height loss will impact a future read on a Dexa? The T12 height loss was corrected down to a 20% loss after the surgery. I guess I am wondering how the filling in material at T12 will affect the total reading if it affects it at all.

@robinleebru The DEXA uses lumbar vertebrae.
