Bone Densitometry DXA is a low dose radiation X-ray system capable of detecting very small percentages of bone change. Facts... • Osteoporosis affects more than 200 million people worldwide.1 • 34 million Americans are at risk of osteopenia.1 • Acute and long term medical expenses associated with osteopenic fractures are estimated to be $474 billion over the next two decades.1 • Studies indicate that an extra one million women screened for osteoporotic would reduce the cost of fracture treatment and hospital stays by $77 million.2 • I n the United States, the cost of all osteoporosis related fractures is currently equivalent to the combined treatment costs of cardiovascular disease and asthma.3 1. http://www.aaos.org/about/papers/posltion/1113.asp 2.
