Introduction

  Bone disease diagnosis, interventions and therapeutics requires new breakthroughs [1-9]. It needs different therapeutic strategies, magic bullets and paradigms [3-12]. Different aspects of pathology, therapeutics and technology are unevenly progressed. Their developmental insights are discussed in this editorial.

  Drugs, surgery and assistant therapies are usual medications for bone disease treatments [13-18]. They have a long history and widely practiced in the clinic. However, these kinds of therapies loss their momentum due to lack of long-sustained financial supports and high threshold for therapeutic translations.

  The fastest path in future is technical adaptation and renovation [19]. It represents in different therapeutic modality and technical versatility [19-26]

• Drug development in low cost and toxicity (computer-aid drug design and molecular assessments)
• Digital tool in diagnosis and disease analysis
• Surgery assistance or automation by computers (3D printers of bone tissues, joint and others)
• Supportive techniques (movement assistance and prosthetic limbs)
• Artificial intelligence
• New materials (inorganic, organic and bio-materials for dead bone replacement).

  Folk medicine still has its territories in bone disease treatments [27], such as acupuncture [28], herbal plaster and medicine [29,30]. By these traditional medications, clinical orthopedic treatments will be improved without the necessity of high costs of treatments and nursery.

• Massage
• Acupuncture
• Herbal plaster
• Herbal medicine

Conclusion

  There are many diagnostic and therapeutic options and approaches in bone study. With the rapid development of diagnostic and therapeutic versatility for bone diseases, we should expect new surprise and breakthroughs in the future.
