Details about the specialty

Densitometry

We offer the bone densitometry service, an essential diagnostic test to evaluate bone mineral density and detect possible alterations, such as osteoporosis or osteopenia. This examination is key to preventing fractures and maintaining bone health at all stages of life.

Specialty services: Densitometry

Bone densitometry is a non-invasive test that uses X-ray technology to measure bone density, mainly in areas such as the spine, hip or wrist. The results allow us to assess the risk of fractures and plan appropriate treatments to maintain good bone health.

Who is it indicated for?

Densitometry is especially recommended for:

  • Postmenopausal women: To detect osteoporosis early.

  • Men and women over 50 years old: To prevent fractures related to bone loss.

  • People with risk factors: Family history of osteoporosis, prolonged use of corticosteroids, smoking or excessive alcohol consumption.

  • Patients with repeated fractures: To identify possible bone density problems.
