Bone density screening measures the ultrasound properties of the heel, which has mass similar to that found in the spine and hip, where osteoporosis-related fractures occur most often.   The bare foot is placed in the Achilles Express (TM), which transmits ultrasound energy through the heel and measures the bone mineral density (BMD), or bone mass, at the heel.  The machine calculates a T-Score or stiffness index which indicates the individual risk for osteoporosis.  total screening time is approximately 5-10 minutes and a Retail Health professional will review the results with the individual.
