Details.
A low energy X-ray test that measures bone density or loss of density. The scan is painless and involves lying still on a specially designed table while the X-ray source and detector move over the areas being tested. Wear loose clothing without metal buckles or zippers. Bring your referral form, Medicare card, and pension or concession card. Results are interpreted by a radiologist and sent directly to your doctor. Medicare coverage has specific rules, so contact reception before your appointment.
