Latin America Panel
The ISCD DXA Body Composition Analysis Course held virtually on March 13, 2025, was a landmark event in collaboration with the Argentine Association of Osteology and Mineral Metabolism (AAOMM) and the Argentine Society of Osteoporosis (SAO). The course attracted over 100 participants, including endocrinologists, osteologists, rheumatologists, radiologists, and DXA technicians from Argentina and several Latin American countries.
Led by ISCD Latin American Panel members, the course addressed clinical and technical aspects of DXA-based body composition analysis and emphasized best practices in body composition assessment.
Participant feedback reflected high satisfaction and a strong interest in more ISCD-led educational offerings. This event highlights ISCD’s growing presence in the region and reinforces the Society’s mission to promote excellence in musculoskeletal health assessment worldwide.
