The fracture risk assessment tool (FRAX(®)) has been developed for the identification of individuals with high risk of fracture in whom treatment to prevent fractures would be appropriate. FRAX models are not yet available for all countries or ethnicities, but surrogate models can be used within regions with similar fracture risk. The International Society for Clinical Densitometry (ISCD) and International Osteoporosis Foundation (IOF) are nonprofit multidisciplinary international professional organizations. Their visions are to advance the awareness, education, prevention, and treatment of osteoporosis. In November 2010, the IOF/ISCD FRAX initiative was held in Bucharest, bringing together international experts to review and create evidence-based official positions guiding clinicians for the practical use of FRAX. A consensus meeting of the Asia-Pacific (AP) Panel of the ISCD recently reviewed the most current Official Positions of the Joint Official Positions of ISCD and IOF on FRAX in view of the different population characteristics and health standards in the AP regions. The reviewed position statements included not only the key spectrum of positions but also unique concerns in AP regions.
骨折风险评估工具（FRAX(®)）是为识别骨折风险高的个体而开发的，这些个体需要进行治疗以预防骨折。并非所有国家或种族都有 FRAX 模型，但在骨折风险相似的地区可以使用替代模型。国际临床密度测定学会（ISCD）和国际骨质疏松基金会（IOF）是非营利性多学科国际专业组织。它们的愿景是提高对骨质疏松症的认识、教育、预防和治疗。2010 年 11 月，IOF/ISCD FRAX 倡议在布加勒斯特举行，汇集了国际专家，对 FRAX 的实际应用进行了基于证据的审查，并制定了官方立场指导临床医生。ISCD 亚太地区小组最近举行了一次共识会议，审议了 ISCD 和 IOF 联合 FRAX 官方立场的最新官方立场，考虑到亚太地区的不同人口特征和健康标准。审议的立场声明不仅包括关键立场范围，还包括亚太地区的独特关注点。
