Our operations are not affected by the sinkhole and watermain break at the intersection of Coxwell Avenue and Cosburn Avenue.
All patient care services, including the Stavro Emergency Department, are operating as normal. If you have an appointment or feel you need care at MGH, please proceed to the hospital.
BMD testing measures bone loss due to osteoporosis and helps our teams determine the risk of future fractures, the need for medical treatment and monitor the success of existing treatment.
We now accept eReferrals from Primary Care! Find us on the OCEAN Health Map.

If you require assistance outside of regular business hours, you may choose one of the following options:
BMD tests may require the removal of your clothes and changing into a gown, as items on your clothing or undergarments may interfere with the imaging (for example: buttons, clips, zippers etc.). You must not have any exams involving barium or radioisotopes within the last month.
There are no specific preparation instructions for Bone Mineral Density. Please bring a list of the medications you are taking to the exam.
