Description
Osteoporosis (OP) is a bone disease that affects the entire body by decreasing the organic and inorganic components of bone tissue, where dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is the current "gold standard" for diagnosing osteoporosis and predicting the risk of fractures. This study analyzed 115 patients, including males and females aged between 10 and 87 years, between 14th November 2022 and 25th February 2023. According to our results, the DEXA device was used to assess bone density diagnosis capabilities. Our outcomes found that the age group between 60-69 years got the greatest prevalence rate (65.2%) for fragility. The osteoporosis monitor was found to be a precise method for detection. Additionally, the osteoporosis device can diagnose a variety of related diseases, and the Dexa device is considered one of the most effective tools for imaging and diagnosing bone density. Furthermore, our results were similar to previous studies and studies that proved this. Osteoporosis causes bones to become weak and fracture, which can also cause a person to become shorter
