Sunlight Omnisense 9000 Bone Density Screening

Bone Density Screening

Are you looking for a bone density screening? Osteoporosis is a serious disease, and it is causing a huge health burden in the United States. As the population ages, this burden also grows. Osteoporosis involves the disruption of the micro-architecture of the skeleton, bone fragility, and low bone mass. Typically, this disease shows no symptoms until the bone loss has occurred. Bone density screening is critical to the early diagnosis of this problem.

Importance of Bone Density Screening

As osteoporosis is typically symptom-free until permanent damage has been done, it is important to have an early diagnosis to assess the treatment options which can stop or slow the progression of the disease. A bone density scan carried out by an accurate and advanced equipment such as Sunlight Omnisense 9000 is the best way to measure bone density and the risk of osteoporosis. Bone density scans such as this are painless and fast, and can be used to assess fracture risk, measure bone density, diagnose osteoporosis and precursor conditions, as well as to evaluate the effects of medication on the health of bones.

When to Have an Early Bone Density Scan?

According to medical experts, the standard guideline of getting a bone density scan is age 65. However, there are certain conditions in which it is recommended to get a bone density scan at age 60 or even earlier, especially if you have known risk factors for osteoporosis.

Following are some risk factors in which getting an early bone density scan is recommended:

• Personal history of fractures • Family history of osteoporosis • Early menopause • Body weight of less than 127 pounds • Rheumatoid arthritis which requires treatment with glucocorticoid drugs • Thyroid disease which requires treatment with any thyroid replacement hormones

Sunlight Omnisense 9000

The Sunlight Omnisense 9000 allows a fast, efficient, and accurate ultrasound-based osteoporosis screening. It is a reliable device with great features such as user-friendly interface and cable-free touchscreen. Omnisense 9000 is ideal for use in a walk-in clinic, physician’s office, or a pharmacy.

Latest Bone Density Test For Adults

Bone Density Test in Adults

Are you looking for a bone density test? Until the last few years, bone density has not been discussed much. But, nowadays some shocking facts have emerged. One in every 4 men, and one in 2 women, over the age of 50, will break a bone because of osteoporosis. These statistics are quite scary, thus, arise the need to measure bone density.

Importance of Measuring Bone Density

Bone Density Test – Beammed.

Osteoporosis is a bone disease in which the bone density is decreased, and its structural integrity is weakened, which makes the bone more brittle. This disease is progressive and with time, the outer portion of the bone (also known as the cortex) becomes more porous and thinner and makes the bone more prone to fractures. Osteoporosis affects millions of people worldwide. As the disease usually does not show any symptoms, most individuals don’t even know that they have it until is to late and they break a bone.

Therefore, checking the health of your bones periodically is very important. And most medical experts recommend measuring the bone density.

There are a lot of ways to check the health of your bones. One most common way is through densitometry. Densitometry measures the density of your bones and how much minerals are contained in your them. Minerals in your bones are essential in making your bones healthy. However, if you don’t have sufficient minerals, you may acquire bone diseases such as osteoporosis due to the weakness of the bones.

Benefits of Measuring Bone Density

The bone density test allows you to know how much density your bones have. By knowing that, you can avoid bone fractures. And by improving the bone density, you can prevent such painful situations. This means you can increase your bone density and make your bones healthier before they reach the point of no return.

Furthermore, bone density test is also helpful in determining the risks of bone breakage. It’s crucial to know whether you have a risk of fracturing your bones. This way, you will be able to avoid specific activities that may damage your skeletal system. These activities may include dance, sports, and other activities that involve physical movements.

Effects of Low Bone Density 

Low bone density has a lot of negative effects. For example, bone diseases, especially the ones that affect the spine, can result in decrease in  height or hunchbacks. The chances of fracturing your bones with everyday activities such as playing sports or exercising also become high. In worst cases, it even comes to bone transplant to help the bone regeneration process.

BeamMed – Bone Density Test
