Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Osteoporosis is a common condition characterized by low bone density and an increased risk of fractures. Bone fracture may be the result of impact or stress, or could be a result of certain medical conditions that weaken the bones, such as osteoporosis.
This Special Issue covers a range of topics related to the clinical management of osteoporosis, including the latest advancements in diagnosis, treatment, and prevention strategies. It also explores the impact of osteoporosis on fracture risk and the management of orthopedic trauma in elder patients. Additionally, this Special Issue delves into future perspectives in the field, including emerging therapies, novel diagnostic techniques, and potential advancements in personalized medicine.
We look forward to receiving submissions from medical practitioners from a wide range of backgrounds to provide a comprehensive overview of this important topic.
Dr. Laura Tafaro
Guest Editor
