Bone Densitometry: Bone Density Scanning in Virginia
Bone density scanning, also referred to as bone densitometry or dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), is an enhanced form of X-ray technology used to measure bone loss and bone mineral density (BMD).It is most frequently used to diagnose osteoporosis, a condition that primarily affects women after menopause but can also affect men. Osteoporosis is a bone disease that involves a gradual loss of calcium and structural changes that can cause the bones to become more fragile, thinner, and easier to break.
