A bone health clinic can assess factors that may affect bone health and provide personalised guidance based on your individual circumstances. Services may include lifestyle and nutrition advice, bone density testing and monitoring, with referral to a specialist where further diagnosis or management is required.
You may consider a bone health assessment if you have risk factors for low bone density or osteoporosis, a family history of osteoporosis or fractures, or concerns about changes in your bone health. Your healthcare professional can assess your individual risk and determine whether further testing is appropriate.
A DEXA or DXA scan is a low-dose X-ray assessment commonly used to measure bone mineral density. It may be used as part of an assessment of bone health and osteoporosis risk, depending on individual circumstances.
Whether you should have a bone density scan depends on your age, medical history, and risk factors for osteoporosis or fractures. A doctor or qualified healthcare professional can assess your circumstances and determine whether a scan is appropriate.
A bone health clinic may provide personalised advice on areas such as nutrition, physical activity and lifestyle, along with appropriate bone density testing and monitoring. Where a diagnosis or specialist management is required, referral to an appropriate specialist may be recommended.
