    Clinical decision support system for the management of osteoporosis compared to NOGG guidelines and an osteology specialist: a validation pilot study 
    Guðmundsson, Haukur Týr; Hansen, Karen E.; Halldórsson, Bjarni; Ludviksson, Bjorn; Gudbjornsson, Bjorn (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2019-02-01)
    Background: Although osteoporosis is an easily diagnosed and treatable condition, many individuals remain untreated. Clinical decision support systems might increase appropriate treatment of osteoporosis. We designed the Osteoporosis Advisor (OPAD), a ...
