Abstract
Osteoporosis is a prevalent medical condition characterized by a reduction in bone mass and density, which significantly increases the risk of fractures. In order to promote optimal bone health, it is essential to acquire relevant information and adopt a lifestyle that safeguards bone integrity. In light of this, the present study employed the Health Belief Model as a framework to design and develop the Bone+ mobile health chatbot platform. Leveraging artificial intelligence technology, the platform utilizes image analysis of X-rays to assess bone density and predict the likelihood of bone loss. Moreover, it offers comprehensive information on osteoporosis prevention, empowering users to make well-informed decisions regarding their bone health. The results obtained from the heuristic evaluation questionnaire of the chatbot platform demonstrated satisfactory usability, thereby further supporting its efficacy as a valuable tool in osteoporosis prevention.
