National Institute of Health Consensus Development Conference Statement 2000 included four main items. They were;definition of osteoporosis and fracture risk, different fracture risks among different segments of the population, factors for building and maintaining skeletal health throughout life, and evaluation and treatment of osteoporosis. It is clearly documented in the statement that bone strength reflects the integration of bone density and bone quality, and that evaluation of fracture in osteoporosis should depend on risk-based assessment rather than solely on the assessment of a BMD T-score. These issues indicate a new direction in the management of osteoporosis in near future.
2000年美国国立卫生研究院共识发展会议声明包含四个主要项目。它们是：骨质疏松症的定义和骨折风险、不同人群中不同的骨折风险、一生中构建和维持骨骼健康的因素、以及骨质疏松症的评估和治疗。该声明中明确记录，骨强度反映了骨密度和骨质量的综合情况，并且骨质疏松症中骨折的评估应基于风险评估，而不是仅仅依靠骨密度T值的评估。这些问题表明了在不久的将来骨质疏松症管理的新方向。
