The TBS decreased while the BMD remained unchanged. The percentage of patients with osteoporosis and osteopenia, whether partially degraded or totally degraded, increased by the end of this study. The predominant discordance was found in partially degraded microarchitectures, with a higher proportion of osteopenic patients compared to those with normal or osteoporotic bone density. The AUC of the combination of TBS and BMD did not enhance discrimination. TBS, radioactive iodine therapy, and sedentary lifestyle emerged as the main distinguishing factors for DTC patients with VFs.
