About this calculator
The DEXA T-score calculator is an online tool that helps to evaluate the risk of developing osteoporosis based on the results of a bone density test.
It calculates the T-score, which is the difference between the measured bone density and the normal bone density for a female or male of similar age, adjusted for body mass and age.
The T-score is used to categorize bone density into four levels: low risk, intermediate risk, high risk, and osteoporosis.
Here you can calculate your T-score and better understand the risk of developing osteoporosis.
