Yes, that's what I was referring to. One of my my doctors, the endo, said it's only slightly helpful. If someone has a normal DEXA, but fractures, it doesn't matter, they still have a problem. He said if someone had a marginal DEXA, that the TBS might show that their problem was actually worse and give them the opportunity to start meds earlier. That's a big deal to me. But, he tries to treat early anyway. Also, I would like a baseline, especially for hips and wrists before starting bone meds which are frequently more beneficial to spine.
