Abstract Osteoporosis is one of the hotspots in the orthopedic field. Some studies have revealed that not only the changes in bone mineral density (bone mass) but also changes of trabecular bone structure are pathogenic factors. The trabecular bone morphometric analysis is one kinds of important method to study trabecular bone structure change. In this paper, some methods to calculate the trabecular bone morphometric parameters based on Micro-CT images were introduced, such as trabecular anisotropy, connectivity, structure model index, texture and other trabecular bone characteristics. Meanwhile, some examples were given to summarize the applicability, pros and cons of the trabecular bone morphometric parameters to provide evidence for the effective evaluation of osteoporosis and drug treatment.
