Often several parts of the body are tested including the spine, hip and sometimes the wrist. The exam is noninvasive and takes about 10 minutes. The bone density scan measurements are compared to a larger population and are evaluated for bone loss including more severe bone loss known as osteoporosis. The bone loss can make someone more susceptible to fractures. These measurements are often done repeatedly to check for worsening and to see the response to treatment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-1e1c3971\" data-id=\"1e1c3971\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4a248b09 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"4a248b09\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<style>\/*! elementor - v3.21.0 - 30-04-2024 *\/\n.elementor-widget-image{text-align:center}.elementor-widget-image a{display:inline-block}.elementor-widget-image a img[src$=\".svg\"]{width:48px}.elementor-widget-image img{vertical-align:middle;display:inline-block}<\/style>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"560\" height=\"346\" src=\"https:\/\/www.simonmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/bone-density-dexa-scan.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-746\" alt=\"bone-density-dexa-scan\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.simonmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/bone-density-dexa-scan.jpg 560w, https:\/\/www.simonmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/bone-density-dexa-scan-300x185.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 560px) 100vw, 560px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-a0a13e2 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"a0a13e2\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-68187dc4\" data-id=\"68187dc4\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-141923d6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"141923d6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"100\" height=\"52\" src=\"https:\/\/www.simonmed.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/icon-why-choose-us.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-443\" alt=\"American College of Radiology\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-inner-section elementor-element elementor-element-748aa7fa elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"748aa7fa\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-inner-column elementor-element elementor-element-7c084e1b\" data-id=\"7c084e1b\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-448ed717 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"448ed717\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Why Choose Us<\/h2>\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-58d6be83 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"58d6be83\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>SimonMed Imaging and its affiliates have been serving the community for over 30 years.
