Complete Osteoporosis Screening Package
Osteoporosis can gradually weaken bones without causing noticeable symptoms until a fracture occurs. The Complete Osteoporosis Screening Package is designed to help assess bone health and identify signs of reduced bone density at an early stage.
What Does the Screening Include?
Depending on the doctor’s assessment, osteoporosis screening may include a bone mineral density test (BMD/DEXA scan) along with relevant clinical evaluation and laboratory investigations. These assessments can help healthcare professionals understand bone strength and evaluate potential risk factors for osteoporosis.
Who Should Consider Osteoporosis Screening?
Bone health screening may be recommended for older adults, postmenopausal women, people with a history of fractures, individuals with certain medical conditions, or those taking medicines that may affect bone strength. Your doctor can recommend the appropriate tests based on your age, medical history and risk factors.
