The fractional quantitative computed tomography (fQCT) to determine both quantity and distribution of bone mineral was evaluated based on the mechanical properties of trabecular bone. Using quantitative computed tomography (QCT), bone mineral density was measured at 46 areas from 5 bovine tibias. Subsequently, fQCT was measured by the proportion of pixels showing a bone mineral density greater than 290 mg/ml. Based on the mechanical properties of the bone specimens, the QCT and the fQCT were compared. The fQCT showed a significant correlation with the compressive strength with superiority to the QCT.
