Learning outcomes
In evolutive age, alterations of environmental and nutritional origin are more and more frequent, together with genetic anomalies of growth and bone metabolism. In the teaching of Pediatrics, the knowledge of the physiology of bone tissue, of bone tissue markers, of bone mass measurement methods is becoming increasingly important. It follows the need to improve the knowledge of these problems to prevent possible changes in bone metabolism in time and to allow optimal growth for the child and adolescent.
