Osteoporosis study

65,00 

The osteoporosis study analyzes the basic parameters to indicate the probability you may have of suffering from this bone disease.

 

What is it?


Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by the narrowing and deterioration of bone tissue and the loss of bone strength. The condition can progress over time and cause the bone to become increasingly porous and weak, and to break more easily. People with osteoporosis most often suffer fractures in the hip, spine, and wrists.

There are no signs or symptoms of osteoporosis. You may not know you have the disease until you break a bone. For this reason, it is very important to get tested for osteoporosis to see how likely you are to suffer from this bone disease.

Women and the elderly are at greater risk of developing osteoporosis. Hereditary factors, low body weight, smoking and chronic use of certain medications are also risk factors for this disease.

What do we analyze?


The osteoporosis study analyzes the following parameters:

  • Alkaline phosphatase
  • Bone alkaline phosphatase
  • Osteocalcin
  • N-terminal peptide
  • Vitamin D
  • Calcium
  • Match
  • PTH I

Who is it indicated for?


As we age, all people lose bone mass, so osteoporosis is especially common after the age of 70. This study is especially indicated for people who are in this age group.

In addition, the study of osteoporosis is indicated for women and the elderly since they have a higher risk of developing osteoporosis.

Women in the first years after menopause are also a group especially affected by this disease.
