DEXA bone density study of heel
About Test
A DEXA bone density study of heel is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure used to assess bone mineral density in the heel bone. This test is commonly used to diagnose osteoporosis, a condition where bones become brittle and fragile, and the risk of fractures increases. It is also used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment for osteoporosis and to assess the risk of fractures in individuals with a history of fractures or those who are at risk of developing osteoporosis.
The procedure is painless and quick, and it involves minimal exposure to radiation. By measuring bone mineral density in the heel bone, healthcare providers can determine the overall health of the bones and recommend appropriate treatment options to help prevent fractures and improve bone health.
