Ejemplo Resuelto
A 55-year-old with a T-score of -1.0.
- 01T-score = -1.0 (Osteopenia range starts at -1.0)
- 02Approximate 10-year risk = e^(0.5) x (55/50) x 3 = 1.65 x 1.1 x 3 = 5%
- 03Relative risk = 2^1 = 2.0x baseline
Preguntas Frecuentes
What is a T-score?
A T-score compares your bone mineral density to that of a healthy 30-year-old. A score of 0 means your density equals the reference. Negative scores mean lower density.
When should I get a bone density test?
Women 65+ and men 70+ should be screened. Earlier screening is recommended for those with risk factors like family history, low body weight, or long-term steroid use.
How can I improve bone density?
Weight-bearing exercise, adequate calcium and vitamin D, not smoking, limiting alcohol, and medications when prescribed can all improve or maintain bone density.
