Welcome

At Osteoporosis Solutions we will endeavour to increase community awareness of the burden of osteoporosis through service and education.

Osteoporosis is a condition where the bones become brittle and fragile, leading to a greater risk of fractures (breaks). It is often called the silent disease, as there are no symptoms. Often a broken bone is the first indication of osteoporosis. Loss of height and spinal deformities can be caused by collapsed or crushed vertebrae.

A bone density test, which measures the amount of bone mineral (calcium) in the skeleton, is the best way to detect osteoporosis.

Our team of specialised Rheumatologists, qualified technical and support staff, are committed to providing a high level of clinical service and diagnostic accuracy to our referring doctors and patients.

Osteoporosis Screening Service to Medical Practices & Aged Care Facilities

In 2010, we established a service in Perth, Adelaide and Melbourne providing an in-house DEXA service to GP practices and senior citizen villages (including hostels and nursing homes). This service was primarily created to assess the risk of fracture in patients over the age of 70yrs, whose DEXA is now covered by a Medicare rebate (item number 12323).
