What is a Bone Density Scan?

In our individualized medical approach, one service we provide is the Bone Density Scan. A Bone Density Scan, also known as Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) scan, is an X-ray technique used to measure the calcium content of bone to reflect bone density and potential bone loss. It is an essential tool in the diagnosis and management of Osteoporosis.

Why Should You Consider a Bone Density Scan?

Bone Density Scans can be a game-changing step in your health journey, particularly for those over the age of 50, or for those with risk factors for osteoporosis. They are a non-invasive, quick, and safe way to assess your bone health, and can guide the best treatment options when necessary.

Early Detection is Key

Currently, Chicagoans are among the growing population of those affected by Osteoporosis and low bone mass. A proactive approach to your bone health not only increases your longevity but also your ability to enjoy a high standard of living.
