What is osteoporosis and who is at risk?

Osteoporosis is a condition that causes a loss of bone mass and destruction of bone tissue. This causes the bones to weaken, making them more likely to break.  The bones most often affected are the hips, spine and wrists.  Both men and women can get osteoporosis, and all ethnicities can be affected.  While it is most common in adults over age 60, it can strike at any age.

Bone Density Testing (DEXA Scan)

A bone density test, or DEXA Scan,  is a noninvasive, evaluation procedure that uses x-rays to measure bone mass or the weight of the skeleton. The amount of bone in the skeleton determines how strong it is. Bone densitometry is often used to measure bone mass in the spine, hips and arms, as these are the areas most likely to fracture when bone mass is low.

Osteoporosis Testing

Osteoporosis is a disease that causes bones to become more fragile and more likely to break. 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.

Osteoporosis Treatment Plans

Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mass and loss of bone tissue. Treatment of osteoporosis depends on the cause of your condition, the severity of bone loss, and the response to treatments. In general, treatments include calcium, vitamin D, weight-bearing exercise, prevention of falls, and bone-friendly medicines.
