Rheumatology, endocrinology, sports medicine, spine and trauma surgery – osteology combines a variety of medical disciplines. Since they all use imaging techniques for diagnosis and therapy assessment, this exciting topic is one of the focal points of the symposium of the newly founded Interdisciplinary Centre for Osteology at the Charité on 18 March 2023. After an overview of common X-ray, CT and MRI techniques, given by Charité expert Gabriele Armbrecht, POROUS inventor Kay Raum will talk about the possibilities of ultrasound. His lecture “Osteoporosebildgebung – geht es auch ohne ionisierende Strahlung?” (“Osteoporosis imaging – also possible without ionising radiation?, lecture in German) will be followed by a live demonstration of the two ultrasound techniques “Radio Frequency Echographic Multispectrometry” (REMS, University of Padua) and “POROUS Cortical Bone Microstructure Analysis” (developed at Charité -Universitätsmedizin Berlin).
