Bone and Joint
A bone profile test includes examining calcium, alkaline phosphatase, phosphate, and albumin levels in your blood, along with a bone density scan. Calcium, alkaline phosphatase, phosphate, and albumin are essential minerals and enzymes present in your blood and ascertaining their levels helps determine the status and functioning of your bones. Whereas a bone density scan reveals how sturdy your bones are to withstand forces on the body during daily activities. Let us understand these in more depth.
Our bones are meant to enable movement, maintain the body posture, absorb forces that tend to displace the body and throw it off balance, provide shape to the body parts, and also protect your internal organs. But, to carry out these functions it needs a wholesome supply of minerals and enzymes described above, deficiency or excess of which may predispose your bones to damage and disorders. Some important causes of these and bone disorders include
- Osteoporosis
- Osteomalacia
