Osteoporosis is a condition that means your bones are weak and you are more likely to have a breaking bone.
Prevent Osteoporosis Prevent Fractures
When to Screen?
Age above 50
Early menopause or hysterectomy
Smoking & alcohol use
Use of steroids
Presence of arthritis and bone pain
Bone fracture history
When to Screen?
1 in 2 women over 50 years will fracture a bone because of osteoporosis.
1 in 4 men over 50 years will fracture a bone because of osteoporosis.
25% of those who fracture a hip die within 6 months of the injury.
Women are more prone to osteoporosis. However, bone loss is a common phenomenon for both men and women aGer 50 years of age.
Why We?
State of the art technology and equipment.
Dose-efficient photon counting detector technology - simultaneously counts low and high energy X-ray photons resulting in lower dose, faster and efficient scans.
K-edge filter - absorbs the X-rays in the middle energy range and protects the patient against unnecessary exposure.
Multi-View Image Reconstruction (MVIR) - minimization of magnification errors, and thereby providing higher precision and accuracy.
Low Scattered Radiation - narrow fan beam technology.
If you fall under any of the above criteria, it is advised to get checked for Osteoporosis(Bone loss).
BMD is the best method in identifying osteoporosis. A bone density test is the only test that can diagnose osteoporosis before a broken bone occurs. This test helps to estimate the density of your bones and your chance of breaking a bone.
