BMD (Bone Mineral Density)

 600.00

Ultrasonography (USG)

A bone mineral density test uses X-rays to measure the amount of minerals — namely calcium — in your bones. This test is important for people who are at risk for osteoporosis, especially women and older adults. The test is also referred to as dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (Dexa scan).

The results of your test are usually reported as a T-score and Z-score:

  • T-score compares your bone density with that of a healthy young women.
  • Z-score compares your bone density with that of other people of your age, gender, and race.
  • With either score, a negative number means you have thinner bones than average. The more negative the number, the higher your risk of a bone fracture.

A T-score is within the normal range if it is -1.0 or above. If your T-score is:

  • Between -1 and -2.5, you may have early bone loss (osteopenia).
  • Below -2.5, you likely have osteoporosis.
