| Osteoporosis is common in middle-aged men and women and often goes undiagnosed, yet osteoporosis-related bone fractures are a major health risk. Early diagnosis is the key to proper preventive care and therapy. The e-Speed™ provides quantitation of bone mineral density and fracture risk as well as detailed views of the lumbar spine. |
|
| Ask your doctor if a measure of your bone mineral density and risk for osteoporosis would help you avoid this preventable disease. |
