Description
Hyun-Jun Jang and co-authors wrote a 2026 reply letter about their study of bone loss after spine fusion surgery. The letter thanks a reader for a thoughtful comment on their work. It agrees that looking at each spine segment on its own, tracking body alignment, and following patients over time would give stronger proof. The authors also note that their scan-based bone measure stayed stable before and right after surgery, which supports its use even with hardware in place.
