A DEXA scan is currently the most widely - used test in measuring bone mineral density. It is an important test in determining if osteoporosis is present, and assessment of the degree of bone thinning if osteoporosis is detected. Bone loss increases the risk of hip and spine fractures. A DEXA scan is highly recommended for women over age 65, as well as for women that are post menopausal, have had complete hysterectomies or those individuals who have suffered certain types or frequent bone fractures. Other risk factors that may warrant this scan are: A family history of osteoporosis or hip fracture Certain long - term conditions requiring prescription medications for treatment Any fragility fracture after age 40 Recently received treatment for cancer Osteoporosis in Men Osteoporosis can also seriously impact men.
