It is reported that one in three women over the age of 50 and one in five men experience bone fractures due to osteoporosis. *
When bones become brittle due to osteoporosis, even everyday activities can lead to fractures, which can occur without the person even realizing it. Knowing the status of your bones is important for prevention.
In this video, we look at a technology for measuring vitamin D in blood, which is essential for maintaining bone health. In addition, we illustrate Shimadzu's actions and approach to contribute to bone health through a variety of solutions for understanding bone conditions, such as diagnostic imaging technologies, including bone density measurement using X-ray imaging systems.
