We are pleased to offer state-of-the-art diagnostic tools and methods that allow us to provide an early diagnosis for patients at risk for osteoporosis. We use the Hologic Discovery bone densitometer, which delivers fast, high-resolution images with unsurpassed precision and patient convenience.

Osteoporosis affects 28 million Americans - 80% of whom are women. Each year, this debilitating disease contributes to more than 1.5 million new fractures of the hip, spine and forearm.

With the availability of effective drug therapies, there's new hope for millions of women and men with osteoporosis. However, to assure that patients at risk for fracture receive proper treatment, they must first be identified. The treatment of osteoporosis should begin with an objective, quantifiable measurement of the patient's bone density.
