Formula

Bone Density T-Score Classification

A T-score compares your bone density to a healthy 30-year-old adult.

WHO Categories

T-ScoreClassification Above -1.0Normal -1.0 to -2.5Osteopenia (low bone mass) Below -2.5Osteoporosis Below -2.5 with fractureSevere osteoporosis

Each decrease of 1 in T-score roughly doubles fracture risk.

Exemplo Resolvido

A 55-year-old with a T-score of -1.0.

  1. 01T-score = -1.0 (Osteopenia range starts at -1.0)
  2. 02Approximate 10-year risk = e^(0.5) x (55/50) x 3 = 1.65 x 1.1 x 3 = 5%
  3. 03Relative risk = 2^1 = 2.0x baseline

Perguntas Frequentes

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.
