Bone Densitometry

ARE YOU OVER 70? HAVE YOU HAD YOUR BONE DENSITY CHECKED?

Osteoporosis is a common disease that makes bone become more brittle leading to a higher risk of breaks than in normal breaks. Osteoporosis occurs when bones lose minerals, such as calcium, more quickly than the body can replace them causing a loss of bone thickness (bone density or mass). Anyone with specific risk factors for osteoporosis should be investigated by their doctor.

SEE YOUR DOCTOR FOR A REFERRAL, MOST TESTS ARE COVERED BY MEDICARE. PLEASE SEE BELOW THE BONE DENSITY QUESTIONNAIRE.
