DEXA bone density study of radius

About Test

A DEXA bone density study of the radius is a diagnostic test used to evaluate the density of bones in the lower arm, specifically in the radius bone. The test uses low-dose X-ray imaging to evaluate bone mineral density, with the aim of diagnosing conditions such as osteoporosis or detecting bone loss in individuals at risk of developing the condition.

The test can help healthcare professionals diagnose osteoporosis, monitor the progression of the disease, and assess the effectiveness of treatment. It can also be used to identify individuals who are at risk of developing osteoporosis, such as postmenopausal women and men over the age of 70, so that preventive measures can be implemented.

In addition, DEXA bone density studies of the radius can be useful for assessing bone health in individuals who have a history of fractures, are taking medications that may cause bone loss, or have other conditions that affect bone health.

Overall, a DEXA bone density study of the radius is a non-invasive and safe procedure that provides important information about bone health. By identifying individuals who are at risk of developing osteoporosis or who have low bone density, healthcare professionals can provide appropriate treatment and preventive measures to improve bone health and reduce the risk of fractures.
