Dual x-ray absorptiometry
DEXA is a means of measuring bone mineral density (BMD) using spectral imaging. Two X-ray beams, with different energy levels, are aimed at the bones. Soft tissue absorption is subtracted out, then the bone mineral density (BMD) can be determined from the absorption of each beam by bone.
Vertebral Fracture Assessment
Lumbar/thoracic spine x-ray and labs assessed for bone turnover markers.
