Osteoporosis, Causes, Diagnose, Treatment.Abstract
Osteoporosis is a chronic degenerative bone disease that seriously affects human health. This study analyzes the causes of osteoporosis in detail, expounds the common diagnostic methods, and proposes some corresponding treatment programs. Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry has high accuracy, image quality improvement, fast speed, rich clinical applications, and is suitable for scientific research. Quantitative Computed tomography measures true volumetric bone mineral density using initial CT data. This method is not affected by obesity, hyperosteoplasia, vascular calcification and vertebral size. Osteoporosis has the primary and secondary causes, primary osteoporosis covers the osteoporosis when women go through menopause (Type I), and osteoporosis of senile (Type II), and secondary osteoporosis refers to osteoporosis caused by certain medical conditions or medications. Exercise can help patients treat osteoporosis, and drugs could help prevent falls help prevent fractures. However, the treatment effect of most osteoporosis patients is not satisfactory. To treat osteoporosis, only one drug "single-handedly" has limited efficacy, and to effectively combat osteoporosis, it is necessary to emphasize "multi-service combat".
