Answer to Question 1

TRUE

Answer to Question 2

Bone densitometry is a radiologic procedure that measures the bone mineral density (BMD) to determine if demineralization from osteoporosis has occurred. The hip and spine bones give the most accurate results. There are two types of bone densitometry, one uses a CT scan and the other is a DEXA scan using two x-ray beams.
