ISBM History

ISBM is a non-profit research 501(c)3 organization with origins in a series of Workshops on Bone Morphometry, the first of which was held in Ottawa in 1973. Our core mission is to educate and train clinicians and scientists in all aspects of bone morphometry, to provide a forum for experts to share and develop their research, to set standards within the field for skeletal imaging and morphometry, and to advance novel therapies to support lifelong skeletal health. This includes histologic, tomographic, and other advanced imaging modalities for basic, translational, and clinical studies in skeletal tissues to assess how bone cells function and respond to a variety of influences, such as hormones, cytokines, growth factors, and biomechanical forces as well as drugs used to treat bone disorders.
