“…To make the correct medical diagnosis, the evaluation of the extent and severity of bone loss is needed, while secondary forms of bone loss should be excluded. The correct diagnosis arises out of a combination of medical history, examination, laboratory tests, and measurement of bone density via Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry 10 .…”

of the multidisciplinary team, RT should be able to make decisions and evaluate the imaging parameters based on the patient's needs, thus optimizing the imaging results.Of course, one of the main points where the RT is involved in his duties is the accuracy of the diagnostic examination, according to which all the RT should proceed to any imaging. There is a thin line between accurate imaging results and minimal radiation dose, which requires high skill in radiographic technique. RTs are required to use their abilities

“…Telehealth uses technology including videoconferencing, remote monitoring devices, and mobile health apps to facilitate virtual provider-patient consults [14]. Through telemedicine, we can now reach many underserved and underprivileged communities which can ensure remote consultation and patient education [15]. Telehealth can also be used for home-based palliative care and ensure the patient's comfort and improve quality of life [16].…”

Background: The COVID-19 pandemic disrupted routine osteoporosis care due to clinic closures and limited in-person consultations. Telehealth emerged as an alternative model enabling remote care delivery and monitoring. However, previous reviews on telehealth either did not include the pandemic period or had a limited focus in scope. Evidence synthesized specifically for osteoporosis care during the pandemic is needed but lacking. Methods: We systematically searched PubMed, MEDLINE, EMBASE, PsycINFO, Web of Science, and CINAHL for studies on telehealth for osteoporosis published between January 2021 and March 2023. Five studies met the inclusion criteria of: osteoporosis population, telehealth intervention, and COVID-19 pandemic timeframe. Data was extracted on study characteristics, COVID-19 outcomes, osteoporosis status, telehealth purpose, patient satisfaction, and clinical outcomes. Result: The five studies showed telehealth was used for monitoring data, delivering test results, adjusting medications, and assessments.Osteoporosis prevalence among telehealth users ranged 30-100%. High patient satisfaction was reported with telehealth versus in-person care. No major differences occurred in medication delays or fractures between telehealth and in-person groups. Conclusion: This review found telehealth enables effective osteoporosis care and monitoring during the pandemic, with high patient and provider satisfaction. However, more robust randomized controlled trials are needed to establish stronger evidence around telehealth's impacts on clinical osteoporosis outcomes. Implications: Though promising, further high-quality studies will help clarify telehealth's role in improving osteoporosis care and outcomes. Findings inform guidelines on integrating telehealth into routine management. Evidence on user perspectives optimizes telehealth implementation policies.
