Society Information

The International Society for Clinical Densitometry (ISCD) is a multidisciplinary, nonprofit organization that provides a central resource for a number of scientific disciplines with an interest in the assessment of skeletal health. The Society was founded in June 1993 as the result of a meeting of a group who recognized the need to bring disciplines together for this single purpose. The Society was the first of its kind worldwide.

Membership in ISCD has grown steadily since the organization's inception and now stands at over 6,000 doctors, technologists, and other allied health providers in over 55 countries. The Society currently has 60% of its members as physicians and 40% as densitometry technologists in more than 30 disciplines. Disciplines represented include: nephrologists, endocrinologists, radiologists, rheumatologists, gynecologists, densitometry technologists, and nurses -- therefore, the Society reflects an optimal approach to the care and diagnosis of patients with metabolic bone disease across a broad span.
