Bone Density Osteoporosis is a disease of the bones, which occurs slowly over time, without symptoms, until a bone breaks. It is called the silent disease because you cannot feel your bones becoming weak.
Ten million Americans already have osteoporosis and 18 million have low bone mineral density placing them at risk for the disease. The consequences are devastating.
Early diagnosis is important so that treatment or medication can be started.
The amount of bone mineral relates directly to bone strength, regardless of age.
A Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Test measures the amount of minerals in the bone.
A certified Bone Densitometrist does the test on a bone densitometer using small amounts of X-ray. It is available upon referral from your physician, and performed on our state-of-the-art equipment, in a comfortable and friendly office environment.
The test is quick, approximately 10 minutes, and painless and only requires that you remove your shoes. |
