Osteoporosis Screening
A DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) scan is a high-precision type of X-ray that measures your bone mineral density and bone loss. If your bone density is lower than normal for your age, it indicates a risk for osteoporosis and bone fractures.
DEXA is the most accurate way to diagnose osteoporosis. It is commonly used to scan the hip and lower spine. The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and involves a very low dose of radiation.
