Nura’s advanced CT screening catches osteoporosis early
Osteoporosis is a disease that causes your bones to lose their density or become thin. When your bones get thin, they also become fragile, making them more susceptible to breaks. Studies have shown that bone loss starts from the age of 30–40 years in both men and women. Osteoporosis is usually defined on the basis of bone mineral density assessment. Early detection can help manage some risk factors, either by medications, healthy diet and weight bearing exercises.
Risk Factors
Several factors can significantly increase your risk of osteoporosis and bone loss. Know them early and take preventive steps.
- Gender is a major factor in assessing your likelihood of developing osteoporosis with women being much more at risk than men. due to decreased estrogen post menopause
- Older age puts you at greater risk of osteoporosis
- Being of Asian descent puts you at greatest risk of osteoporosis
- A family history of osteoporosis in first degree relatives (parent, sibling, or child), puts you at greater risk, especially if your mother or father fractured a hip
- Body frame size dictates your risk, with men and women who have small body frames tending to have a higher risk because they might have less bone mass
- Sedentary lifestyle increases risk not only for breast cancer but multiple other diseases
- Prolonged steroid intake puts you at a high risk of developing osteoporosis
- Smoking and exposure to secondhand smoke increases your risk of osteoporosis
- Excessive alcohol consumption increases risk not only for osteoporosis but multiple other diseases

Screening for Osteoporosis
Osteoporosis is a silent condition that weakens bones and increases the risk of fractures, especially in older adults. Early screening is essential to identify low bone density before complications arise. At our center, we assess bone mineral density using advanced CT technology. By analyzing the Hounsfield Unit (HU) values of spinal vertebrae on ultra-low dose CT scans, we can estimate bone strength without additional tests or radiation. This method enables early detection of osteopenia and osteoporosis helping you take timely steps to protect your bone health.
Over 60% of Indian adults are overweight or obese
Nura provides accurate body composition insights
An accurate calculation of your weight and height helps identify if you are underweight, normal or healthy weight, overweight or obese and identify associated risks. These parameters are different for men and women, due to the differences in body composition.
