free bone scan

dear all,

the clinic where I used to work is offering free bone scan to members of public
priority given to elderly citizens, after menopausal women and people in need, though
It's a simple scan which check patient's bone density, whether lacking calcium or
scan for any bone-related illness eg.osteoporosis, calcium deficiency...etc
(sorry, me don't know how to put it in medical terms)

if anyone's parents, relatives or friends who would like to have a scan,
can give me name, IC no. and contact details
clinic will contact the parties concerned for confirmation and arrangement
(may try to cater for all, however if overwhelming responses .. may subject to availability)

do not worry, it's a simple scan and doesn't take long
perhaps about 5 to 10 minutes for each patient
the scanner is a small machine, where you place your foot on the 'platform'
all you have to do is just to ensure that your feet are clean
there's no pain and it's not dangerous
(believe me, I had tried it before =)

What is "Bone Scan"? Mind to describe what is this scan for? Check for Osteoporosis?
