Brief Summary: The goal of this study is to assess the feasibility of emerging CT-based tools to measure changes in central and peripheral bone density micro-structure and marrow adipose tissue MAT among patients treated with oral steroids
Detailed Description: This study aims to prove that emerging CT-based tools are suitable to measure changes in central and peripheral bone density geometry micro-structure and marrow adipose tissue MAT among patients treated with oral steroids To do this investigators will recruit 10 non-smokers defined as 10 pack-year smoking history age 25-45 years with a diagnosis of severe persistent asthma who either chronically use oral steroids or do not use any oral steroids Participants will undergo dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry DXA dual-energy mid-tibia CT high-resolution single-energy ankle CT and low-radiation hip CT scans at baseline and 6-month follow-up visits The images obtained will be used to analyze cross-sectional differences in central and peripheral bone density geometry micro-structure and MAT between patients using oral steroids versus those who do not use any oral steroids Differences in imaging at baseline and six-month follow visits will be used to analyze longitudinal bone changes among patients with oral steroid treatment
