Bone Density Scan

A Bone Density Scan is a more advanced X-Ray technology that can check your bone health, specifically to look at the make-up of the bones.  Bone density scans, also referred to as Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DX) or Bone Densitometry (DEXA), are used to look for osteoporosis, a condition that weakens your bones.  

If your provider ordered this advanced imaging, then please:
read the instructions, fill out the safety form and sign the consent.
