Bone Density Analysis

Bone Density or Bone Mineral Density (BMD) is the amount of bone mineral in bone tissue. As we age we tend to lose bone density making it porous and susceptible to break. While there are many reasons why a bone can break, a BMD Analysis is the only quantitative analysis to know the health of our bone. Our proprietary technology uses Ultrasound waves to assess weight bearing as well as non-weight bearing bones. The benefits include no radiation, ease of use and repeated measurements to monitor treatment effects.

Patients that would benefit from bone density analysis: osteoporosis, osteopenia, fractures, spinal pain, bone pain, post-cancer, 40+ age, chronic steroid use, sedentary lifestyle

After a thorough history and physical examination by Dr. Bajaj, you may be recommended a bone density analysis.

A typical assessment takes 10-15minutes and maybe repeated as a follow up to assess improvements or future progressions.
