In this paper, we establish a new blowup criterion for the strong solutions in a smooth bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^3$. In [13], Wen, Yao, and Zhu prove that if the strong solutions blow up at finite time $T^*$, the mass in $L^\infty(\Omega)$ norm must concentrate at $T^*$. Here we extend Wen, Yao, and Zhu's work in the sense of the concentration of mass in $BMO(\Omega)$ norm at $T^*$. The method can be applied to study the blow-up criterion in terms of the concentration of density in $BMO(\Omega)$ norm for the strong solutions to compressible Navier-Stokes equations in smooth bounded domains. Therefore, as a byproduct, we can also improves the corresponding result about Navier-Stokes equations in [11]. Moreover, the appearance of vacuum is allowed in the paper.
