The Osteoporosis Manual: Prevention,
Diagnosis and Management 1st ed.
2019 Edition
This comprehensive
manual covers all aspects of the
prevention, diagnosis and management
of osteoporosis, offering an upbeat
and optimistic assessment of what
can be achieved. While
scientifically based, the book
provides easy-to-follow guidelines
for lifelong maintenance of skeletal
structure and function. It deals
with everything from the basic
physiology of bone and mineral
metabolism to the diagnostic utility
of radiologic imaging and
specialized tests and current
treatment recommendations, including
for fracture management. The
relationship of osteoporosis to a
variety of other disorders is also
thoroughly explored and elucidated.
Osteoporosis represents a global
threat because every human being is
vulnerable to it as time passes. The
authors point out the enormous scale
of the problem in terms of human
suffering, morbidity, and mortality
on the one hand and the associated
astronomical national and global
costs on the other. Osteoporosis is
preventable, and every doctor in
every medical discipline can
contribute to this goal. And
although prevention is better than
cure, it is never too late for
effective therapy, as outlined in
this book. Bone is every doctor's
and every body's business!
