Description

Vanessa Rouach and co-authors expose a gap in bone care after cancer in this 2026 study. Cancer treatment can thin bones, a harm well known in breast and prostate cancers. For other cancers, checks are less steady, and newer drugs add unknown risks.

Bone density scans are advised for patients at high skeletal risk. The team reviewed real-world care after new cancer diagnoses. They tracked who got scans, when, and what the scans showed. Checks came late and went to a narrow slice of patients. The study names a fixable gap in survivorship care, where bone health waits too long for attention.
