Good quality What Is A Bone Densitometry Test - DEXA Bone Densitometry DXA 800E – Pinyuan

Application

Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA or DEXA) using a very small dose of ionizing radiation to produce pictures of the inside of the forearm to measure bone density . It is evaluating for Osteoporosis and Osteopenia and provides a versatile solution for evaluating the risk of osteoporotic fracture.

It is an enhanced form of X-ray technology that is used to measure bone loss. DXA is today’s established standard for measuring bone mineral density (BMD).

Who Should Get Bone Density Tested

Anyone can get osteoporosis. It’s more common among older women, but men can have it, too. Your chances increase as you age.
● You should discuss with your doctor whether you need the DXA Bone Test. They may recommend it if you meet any of the following:You’re a woman 65 or older.
● You’re a postmenopausal woman 50 or older.
● You’re a woman at the age of menopause and have a high chance for breaking bones.
● You’re a woman who has already been through menopause, younger than 65, and have other things that give you a higher chance of osteoporosis.
● You’re a man 50 or older with other risk factors.
● You break a bone after 50.
● You’ve lost more than 1.5 inches of your adult height.
● Your posture has gotten more hunched.
● You’re having back pain without any cause.
● Your periods have stopped or are irregular although you’re neither pregnant nor menopausal.
● You’ve gotten an organ transplant.
● You’ve had a drop in hormone levels.

Some types of prescription drugs can cause bone loss. These would include glucocorticoids, a class of drugs used to reduce inflammation. Tell your doctor if you’ve been on cortisone (Cortone Acetate), dexamethasone (Baycadron, Maxidex, Ozurdex), or prednisone (Deltasone).

Our DXA Bone Densitometry is  for the Peripheral test. This measures bone density at your the front of forearm.  It is usually cheaper.

Peripheral tests are also a way to screen people, so those who show a greater chance for osteoporosis can get more testing. They are also used for larger people who cannot get the central DXA because of weight limits.

The results on the bone density report
T score: This compares your bone density with a healthy, young adult of your gender. The score indicates if your bone density is normal, below normal, or at the levels that indicate osteoporosis.

Here’s what the T score means:
● -1 and above: Your bone density is normal.
● -1 to -2.5: Your bone density is low, and it may lead to osteoporosis.
● -2.5 and above: You have osteoporosis.

Z score: This allows you to compare how much bone mass you have compared with other people of your age, gender, and size.
