Why this test?
This test evaluates a variety of parameters associated with the development of osteoporosis, a condition characterized by loss of bone density and increased risk of fractures. It measures basic blood components as well as minerals and hormones that regulate bone health, such as calcium, phosphorus, vitamin D, and parathyroid hormone (PTH). It is recommended for individuals who wish to check their risk of developing osteoporosis, as well as for patients with chronic kidney disease, malabsorption disorders, limited sun exposure, or restrictive diets, which can affect calcium and bone metabolism. Measuring these parameters helps detect deficiencies or imbalances that may lead to bone loss over time, enabling prevention and early intervention.
