About
Dr. Neil Binkley is a leading figure in bone health and geriatric medicine, whose work has fundamentally advanced the understanding and clinical management of osteoporosis and sarcopenia. His research bridges the critical gap between bone density assessment and surgical outcomes, particularly in orthopedics. A landmark contribution is his demonstration that routine preoperative CT scans for robotic-assisted total hip arthroplasty can identify previously undiagnosed osteoporosis, directly informing femoral fixation strategy and reducing perioperative fracture risk. This work, which has garnered significant attention, exemplifies his broader impact—with over 23 citations on this specific paper alone—in translating bone health diagnostics into actionable surgical care. Dr. Binkley is also renowned for his pioneering efforts in defining and measuring sarcopenia, the age-related loss of muscle mass and function, and for his leadership in developing the ISCD official positions on bone densitometry. His research has shaped international guidelines, making him an indispensable voice for clinicians and researchers dedicated to improving musculoskeletal health in aging populations.
