Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
Main study parameters/endpoints: Compare the validity of microindentation measurements with that of BMD measurements as predictor for bone strength as translated by prevalent fractures in the case of patients with osteoporosis	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
.to evaluate the ability of BMT measurements in patients treated with Bisphosphonates, particularly in the longterm, and to predict the role of local increasement in bone turnover in altering bone quality in localised bone diseases such as Paget disease of bone and fibrous dysplasia.	—
