Bone loss occurs without symptoms and can lead to painful fractures. 77 percent of all patients affected by osteoporosis are not diagnosed. Women
are especially susceptible and can lose up to 20 percent of their total
bone mass in the first five to seven years following menopause. Osteoporosis
can be detected safely and non-invasively. Regular screenings,
provided by AAR, ensure prompt diagnosis and early intervention
for this disease. To learn more, download our brochure or the 2004 Surgeon General's Report on Bone Health and Osteoporosis.
