The OsteoTest | home is designed for early detection of excessive calcium loss from bones—a possible sign of conditions such as osteoporosis or stress fractures, particularly in competitive sports. It can detect changes even before they are visible in imaging procedures such as X-rays.
Scientific basis
The testing method is based on a novel and highly accurate analysis of calcium isotopes in urine using a mass spectrometer. This allows conclusions to be drawn about the body's calcium balance and thus about bone formation or breakdown.
Test can be performed at home
Only a morning urine sample is required (fasting, before breakfast). After collection, send the sample to the lab by mail. Results are available in about 10 business days.
