The Santa Fe Bone Symposium, an annual meeting sponsored by the Osteoporosis Foundation of New Mexico, is dedicated to the exchange of scientific, societal, and economic information on osteoporosis, metabolic bone diseases, and assessment of skeletal health. Participants include physicians and scientists from the academic community, private sector, and industry, as well as clinical research coordinators, ancillary health care providers, and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) technologists. Symposium topics are identified by attendee evaluations from previous programs, with consideration of clinical relevance and recent developments in the field. Faculty members are internationally recognized experts who have contributed to the understanding of the sciences of basic bone biology, the use of clinical tools to assess bone health and fracture risk, or the development of treatments for osteoporosis and metabolic bone diseases. The Ninth Annual Santa Fe Bone Symposium was held on August 1–2, 2008, immediately preceded by the 2-d Osteoporosis Update for Endocrine Fellows, sponsored by The Endocrine Society and the Endocrine Fellows Foundation. This is a collection of scientific essays on clinically relevant topics from the 2008 Annual Santa Fe Bone Symposium. Proceedings of previous Santa Fe Bone Symposia have been presented elsewhere (1,2) .

N2 - The Ninth Annual Santa Fe Bone Symposium was held on August 1-2, 2008, in Santa Fe, New Mexico, USA. The symposium faculty presented the current best evidence on selected topics of clinical relevance in the fields of osteoporosis, metabolic bone disease, and assessment of skeletal health. The educational venues were in the form of didactic presentations, panel discussions, challenging cases, and numerous interactive discussions. Knowledge of basic science and clinical trials was applied to real-world patient scenarios that were discussed by faculty experts and clinician participants. Topics included an update on the rationale and development of new agents for the treatment of osteoporosis, the use of bone turnover markers in clinical practice, hospital-based pathways for the management of hip fracture patients, injectable bisphosphonates for the treatment of osteoporosis, combination therapy with anabolic and antiresorptive agents, and assessment of skeletal health with devices other than central dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. This is a collection of scientific essays based on presentations and discussions at the 2008 Santa Fe Bone Symposium.
