Is Your Bone Health at Risk? Let DEXA Reveal the Truth
DEXA scans are essential in detecting osteoporosis, a condition where bones become thin, brittle, and more prone to fracture. It often progresses without symptoms until a break occurs, commonly in the vertebrae or hips.
Age-related bone loss is a major risk factor, especially for postmenopausal women and older adults. A DEXA scan provides early warning, giving you and your doctor the chance to protect your bone health.
