The condition, osteopenia, is identified by low bone mineral density and can lead to osteoporosis as one ages. Bone mineral density peaks before the age of 30,[1] after which it slowly decreases. Osteopenia is diagnosed by a DXA (Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry) scan which measures bone mineral density. This provides a T Score, which is the measurement used to assist in determining whether or not an individual has osteopenia or osteoporosis.
