Osteoporosis remains a major yet often overlooked health concern, particularly in ageing populations. This symposium highlights the important role of primary care physicians and non-orthopaedic specialists in preventing fragility fractures through early identification and timely treatment. The session will explore practical approaches to interpreting DEXA scan results, evaluating clinical risk factors, and incorporating fracture risk assessments into routine practice. Recent local findings will also be presented, offering valuable context for treatment considerations and comparisons between therapeutic options. Case-based discussions will further illustrate how patient profiles and risk factors can inform treatment selection. Designed to support clinical decision-making with up-to-date evidence, this symposium offers relevant insights for everyday practice.
