Osseous Density Measurement Laboratory

Osteoporosis is a disease characterised by progressive reduction of bone mass and deterioration of bone quality, resulting in the reduction of bone strength and increased risk of fracture.

The measurement of osseous density is one of the most reliable methods of diagnosing osteoporosis, a quick, painless and simple test that is used to determine the loss of bone mass in the early stages of osteoporosis. For the measurement of osseous density, Iasis Hospital has the appropriate equipment to carry out high-precision osseous measurements.
