The estimated 10-year probability of fracture based on present age, gender and measured BMD is less than 10%. This absolute fracture risk remains low. A follow-up assessment may be considered in 2 to 3 years to monitor the trend in BMD.</p> <p> Thank you for your referral. Dr Henry Seven 17/06/2008</p> <pre> Note: WHO classification of osteoporosis (WHO Technical Report Series 1994: 843) - Normal: T-score equal to -1.0 s.d. or higher - Osteopenia: T-score between -1.0 and -2.5 s.d. - Osteoporosis: T-score equal to -2.5 s.d. or lower - Severe/Established osteoporosis: Osteoporosis with one or more fragility fracture. T-score: The number of s.d. from the mean BMD for a gender-matched young adult population. Z-score: The number of s.d. from the mean BMD for an age-, weight- and gender-matched population.
