Elderly patients have relatively weaker bones and are more likely to fall as a result of poorer balance, drug side effects and environmental hazards. They are therefore highly prone to bone-related diseases. Physicians rely heavily on bone densitometers to diagnose and treat these medical conditions. Global Bone Densitometers Market (2018-2024) | KBV Research All about Bone Densitometers The technology used for bone mass measurement is bone densitometry (also referred to as the dual energy radiation absorption petroleum, DEXA or DXA). It also helps to measure the amount of bone mass in the body of a...
