@jessbricht, Some people have a DEXA done on their wrists. in addition to their spine and hip. The wrist is also mostly cortical bone like the feet. Your doctor would have to specify which areas he wanted tested.

@drsuefowler Thank you for this suggestion. Do you know if one wrist scan would in itself provide enough information or would I need to compare a new wrist scan to a future one? Say in 5 months? Not a year as I’m assuming my doctor will suggest.
