Core Tip	Diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis in ulcerative colitis are discussed according to the latest evidence. Innovative applications of new programs derived from bone densitometry to evaluate bone quality and to predict fracture risk in patients affected by ulcerative colitis are described. Charts for ten years fracture risk may be utilized to refer patients to bone densitometry and/or to prescribe drugs against osteoporosis. Trabecular bone score and hip structural analysis may be considered to assess bone quality, that could be impaired by malabsorption and chronic inflammatory status. Advices for prevention and treatment of bone damage are given, also considering cost-effectiveness.
