Bone density is answering a different question than the one you’re asking
You’re asking a mechanical question. DXA gives you a mineral count. BoneScore adds a direct measure of bone material strength — most valuable in exactly the patients where density is least reliable.

You planned for bone that would hold
The screw that spins, the vertebra that gives. Get an objective bone-quality data point before you’re committed to a plan.
Orthopedic & Spine Surgeons → Women’s Health & OB-GYNHer scan came back normal. That’s not the same as strong.
Three of four fragility fractures happen to women whose scan didn’t say osteoporosis. A second data point, in the same visit.
Women’s Health & OB-GYN → EndocrinologyDXA was built for primary osteoporosis. Your patients aren’t.
Diabetes, steroids, CKD, transplant — the patients where a T-score tells you least. Measure the tissue, not just the mineral.
Endocrinology → OncologyCancer treatment protects one thing while it weakens another
Many therapies change bone quality long before density. Follow bone quality while there’s still time to act on it.
Oncology →The through-line
Screw purchase, treatment response, treatment-induced fragility, the osteopenia grey area — each is a question about the material quality of bone, not its mineral quantity. OsteoProbe presses a probe into the tibia with controlled force and reads how the tissue resists: the same class of mechanical behavior that determines whether bone holds a screw or gives way around it.Bring BoneScore to your practice
