High-Tech Equipment
Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA)
This machine allows us to quickly and painlessly scan the entire body to measure bone, muscle and fat mass. We can also look at specific areas of the body that are often more affected by bone fragility fractures such as the lower spine, hips and wrist.
