[Clinical application and limitation of bone metabolic markers in osteoporosis treatment].
In recent years, bone metabolic markers have been one of the most important tools in osteoporosis treatment because of their usefulness of understanding current bone metabolic status, early judgment of osteoporosis treatment and their possibilities in the evaluation of fracture risk. It is important that we utilize bone metabolic markers for osteoporosis treatment in combination with the measurement of bone mineral density and the evaluation of fractures by X-ray photograph.
