Hello, I am hearing more and more about the use of echo light scans to ensure better accuracy in determining t-scores and bone density quality. Does Mayo Clinic provide these scans?

Here is an article from Mayo Clinic discussing advances in endocrinology regarding osteoporosis and predicting risk of fracture, ie, high-resolution peripheral quantitative computerized tomography (HRpQCT) imaging and trabecular bone score (TBS).
