What is Bone Densitometry (DEXA)?

Bone Densitometry, commonly known as a DEXA scan, is a medical imaging test that measures bone mineral density (BMD). This test helps evaluate bone strength and can identify conditions like osteoporosis before a fracture occurs. By using low-dose X-rays, a DEXA scan provides precise, high-resolution images that determine the density of your bones.

Why is Bone Densitometry Important?

Bone densitometry is essential for identifying osteoporosis, a condition where bones become fragile and more prone to fractures. It is particularly important for individuals at higher risk due to factors such as:

Age: Bone density naturally decreases with age, especially after menopause for women.
Family History: A family history of osteoporosis increases your risk.
Lifestyle Factors: Smoking, excessive alcohol consumption, and lack of physical activity can all contribute to bone loss.
Medical Conditions: Certain diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis or thyroid problems, can affect bone health.

Early detection of low bone density allows for timely intervention, which may include lifestyle changes, medication, or supplements to improve bone health and prevent fractures.

How is a DEXA Scan Performed?

The DEXA scan procedure is simple and painless. You will be asked to lie down on an examination table while the scanner passes over the area being measured (typically the hip and lower spine). The entire process usually takes about 10-20 minutes, and there is no need for any special preparation beforehand. You may be asked to remove any jewelry or clothing with metal, as it can interfere with the scan.

Conditions Detected by Bone Densitometry

Bone densitometry is particularly useful in detecting:

Osteoporosis: The most common condition detected through a DEXA scan, characterized by weak and brittle bones.
Osteopenia: A condition where bone mineral density is lower than normal but not yet low enough to be classified as osteoporosis.
Fracture Risk: DEXA can help assess the risk of fractures, enabling early preventive measures.
