Boning up on density screening
Article Abstract:
Pharmacists are taking advantage of the opportunities presented by bone density screening for detecting osteoporosis. The service provides both profit and professional fulfillment to pharmacists as osteoporosis is considered as a major health problem which is more prevalent than heart disease and cancer. For diagnosing osteoporosis, pharmacists employ a low-dose X-ray equipment called a densitometer or an ultrasound device called sonometer.
