The International Society for Clinical Densitometry (ISCD) is a multidisciplinary nonprofit global organization formed to ensure excellence in densitometry imaging, interpretation, and application. The Canadian panel of the ISCD represents ISCD in Canada and oversees Canadian bone densitometry certification programs. The standards of care from the Canadian panel of the ISCD have been developed in order to establish the minimum level of acceptable performance for the practice of bone densitometry in Canada. A variety of techniques are available for skeletal assessment of bone mineral density, which vary in accuracy, precision, and clinical utility as well as availability. This article focuses on central dual X-ray absorptiometry in adults and does not address densitometry in the pediatric population. Other technologies will be addressed in a subsequent article.
国际临床骨密度测量学会（ISCD）是一个多学科的全球性非营利组织，其成立宗旨是确保骨密度测量成像、解读及应用的卓越性。ISCD的加拿大专家小组代表ISCD在加拿大开展工作，并监督加拿大的骨密度测量认证项目。ISCD加拿大专家小组制定了护理标准，以确立加拿大骨密度测量实践可接受的最低性能水平。有多种技术可用于骨骼矿物质密度的评估，这些技术在准确性、精密度、临床实用性以及可及性方面各有不同。本文重点关注成人的中心双能X线吸收法，未涉及儿科人群的骨密度测量。后续文章将讨论其他技术。
