Did you know that osteoporosis is a silent disease? 🦴
Protect your bones before it’s too late!

📌 What is Bone Densitometry?
Bone densitometry, often called a DEXA or DXA scan (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry), is the gold standard for measuring bone mineral density. It is a vital tool for the early diagnosis of osteoporosis and assessing fracture risk.

👩‍⚕️ Who Needs a Scan?
• Women aged 50 and above (especially postmenopausal)
• Men aged 60 and above
• All adults with clinical risk factors (family history, smoking, history of fracture, rheumatoid arthritis or those on long-term steroid medications)

📝 How to prepare
• Avoid calcium and Vitamin D3 supplements 24 hours before the test
• Fast 2–4 hours (no food or milk)
• Wear comfortable clothing (no metal zippers/buttons)
• Inform staff if pregnant or possibly pregnant

⚡ What to expect during the procedure
• Non-invasive and painless
• Takes only 10–20 minutes
• No injections required
• Very low radiation exposure

Don't wait for a fracture!
