Bone Density Test (click for worldwide facilities list): A bone density test, also called densitometry or DEXA scan, can determine if you have osteoporosis or are at risk of osteoporosis before you break any bones.
Bone mineral densitometry is an x-ray technique used in the diagnosis and prevention of osteoporosis. By comparing x-ray images taken at different intensities, or of different materials, physicians can calculate a patient's bone mass (or lack thereof). Weak, brittle, osteoporotic bones contain a lower concentration of minerals like calcium; a quantitative x-ray imaging camera can detect these subtle variations in bone mineral density.
A bone density test is a fairly accurate predictor of your risk. The results from a bone density test can let you know how you compare with other people of your age, sex and other similar characteristics.
The older you get, the higher your risk of osteoporosis because your bones become weaker as you age. Your race also makes a difference: you're at greatest risk of osteoporosis if you're white or of Southeast Asian descent, and African American and Hispanic men and women have a lower, but still significant, risk. Other risk factors for osteoporosis include low body weight, a personal history of fractures, a family history of osteoporosis and using certain medications that can cause bone loss.
