Free Bone Scans for Women

Story from the Lubbock Avalanche Journal - 8/12/2008

The Texas Tech Health Sciences Center is offering free bone scans for postmenopausal women.

Women two or more years after menopause may receive a simple ultrasound bone scan that typically takes less than three minutes. Depending on the bone scan result, women with low bone density, if interested, may qualify to participate in a government-sponsored research project focusing on the effects of green tea supplements and tai chi exercise on bone health.

Participation in the study is not required to receive the free bone scan.
