A bone mineral density test (BMD) is a non-invasive, painless test and is the best way to determine your bone health. We offer BMD testing utilizing the best test currently available: dual energy x-ray absorptiometry. This test is quick and painless; it is similar to having an x-ray taken, but uses much less radiation.
