Over 28 million Americans, 80 percent of whom are women, have or are at risk for developing osteoporosis. Since osteoporosis is often referred to as a "silent disease," many are less likely to find out they have it until they suffer a painful fracture.

The Medical Center at Scottsville offers bone density scanning to help you and your doctor evaluate your risk for osteoporosis. Talk with your doctor about scheduling a bone density scan at The Medical Center at Scottsville, or call us at (270) 622-2872.
