Abstract
Bone resorption inhibitors used in Japan are bisphosphonate, selective estrogen receptor modulators(SERMs), denosumab, eldecalcitol, and calcitonin. The structural and material properties of bone quality are important factors in osteoporosis treatment. In contrast to improvements in bone density, those in bone quality are difficult to clinically determine as no simple test is available and changes are difficult to detect. Numerous reports have been published on the mechanisms by which bone resorption inhibitors increase bone density and suppress bone fractures. This paper describes the effects of each bone resorption inhibitor and focusses on burr holes, trabeculae, microdamage, collagen cross-links, and microstructures.
