title: [Usefulness of biochemical markers of bone turnover in diagnosis of osteoporosis].
abstract: In diagnosis of osteoporosis biochemical markers of bone turnover play an important role as the tool of estimation of bone metabolism rate. Bone formation markers are alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin, procollagen; bone resorption markers are pyridinoline, deoxy-pyridinoline, hydroxyproline. Biochemical markers allow together with other diagnostic methods better evaluation of bone status.
