【 摘 要 】

On one of her visits, MB Borg, a 54 year old lady, showed concern about her risk of developing osteoporosis. Lately, she had been listening to a series of radio and TV programmes on this matter where particular emphasis was put on bone density scans. She was preoccupied about being at risk for osteoporosis and wanted to know what she could do to prevent it or even treat it if she was found to suffer from osteoporosis.
