Tests Details :

The BMD – Spine & Hip test is a comprehensive diagnostic scan used to measure bone mineral density in two critical areas of the body—the spine and hip. These regions are most commonly affected by bone loss and are highly prone to fractures, especially in individuals with osteoporosis.

This test is performed using DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry), a precise and non-invasive imaging technique that provides accurate assessment of bone density. Measuring both spine and hip offers a more complete evaluation of overall bone health and fracture risk.

The test is widely used for diagnosing osteoporosis, assessing bone strength, and monitoring response to treatment. It plays a vital role in early detection, allowing timely intervention to prevent fractures and maintain bone health.

Test Recommended For

  • Individuals at risk of osteoporosis
  • Postmenopausal women
  • Elderly individuals
  • Patients with history of fractures
  • Individuals with hormonal or metabolic bone disorders
  • Monitoring bone density during treatment
