Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Diagnostic standard of osteoporosis of the Japanese Society for Bone and Mineral Research has proposed to diagnose osteoporosis by visual interpretation of bone contraction degree on lateral lumber plain X-ray and measurement of bone density using Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA) method. However doctor’s experience and knowledge might affect those results. Therefore, a method that osteoporosis can be diagnosed objectively is required. In this paper, the method for Computer-Aided Diagnosis of osteoporosis is proposed. Using public domain software, ImageJ, we evaluate bone contraction degree by spatial frequency analysis of region of interest (ROI) (64×64matrix) on the lateral view of third lumbar vertebrae of digital radiographs. Digital radiographs of 48 patients are examined with standardization integrated power values calculated by power spectrum values of the 2 dimension Fast Fourier Transform (2DFFT). As the result of the analysis on these values, it is found that evaluation of osteoporosis can be performed by the Computer-Aided Diagnosis using the proposed method.
