The ‘Free BMD camp’ was of much use to the general public and old age population in creating awareness about the significance of osteopenia and osteoporosis and how early diagnosis can help in preventing pathological fractures. Bone mineral density of around 150 people more than 40 years old and post-menopausal women, who visited OPD on that day was assessed using a BMD machine. We express our immense gratitude to everyone for making this camp a grand success!
