The stressstrain index (SSI), of a bone, is a surrogate measure of bone strength[1] determined from a cross-sectional scan by QCT or pQCT (radiological scan). The stress–strain index is used to compare the structural parameters determined by analysis of QCT/pQCT cross-sectional scans to the results of three-point bending test.

Definition

It is calculated using the following formula:[2]

Where:

  • rmax is the distance of voxel from centre
  • CD is the apparent cortical (bone) density
  • ND is the normal (cortical bone) density
  • ri is the pixel position from the centre
  • a is the area of a pixel

History and relation to moments of inertia

It was developed by the manufacturer of a peripheral quantitative CT (pQCT) scanner,[2] and is considered to be by some an improvement over the information provided by calculating the area moments of inertia and polar moments of inertia.
