Fracture is a major cause of morbidity and death in postmenopausal women. Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) measures bone mineral density, which helps in estimating fracture risk and in identifying those who may benefit from treatment. Although screening guidelines differ somewhat for postmenopausal women under age 65, in general, DXA is indicated if the patient has a high risk for fracture.
骨折是绝经后妇女发病率和死亡率的主要原因。双能 X 线吸收法（DXA）可测量骨密度，有助于评估骨折风险，并确定哪些患者可能受益于治疗。尽管 65 岁以下绝经后妇女的筛查指南略有不同，但一般来说，如果患者有发生骨折的高风险，则需要进行 DXA 检查。
