Bone Density Assessments
Bone Density Assessments
Our Bone Density Assessments use the latest technology to provide the most accurate results
Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) Scans
DEXA scans are the gold standard for measuring bone mineral density (BMD) at critical sites like the spine, hip, and wrist. This non-invasive procedure uses low-dose X-rays to produce images and calculate bone density scores.
Advanced Imaging for Complex Cases
For cases requiring further investigation, the Core Laboratory might use CT or MRI scans to look at bone structure, detect fractures, or assess bone health in areas not covered by standard DEXA scans.
Bone Density Assessments Can Provide
- Early detection of bone density loss, allowing for timely interventions.
- Customized health plans that can prevent or slow the progression of bone diseases.
- Improved quality of life by reducing the risk of fractures and associated complications.
- The CT Core Laboratory aims to empower individuals with knowledge about their bone health, offering preventive measures and treatments to maintain skeletal integrity and function throughout their lives.
