A 63 year old woman had a screening bone density test. She had never had any fractures and was generally healthy.
Radiologist's report:
1. Severe osteopenia of the lumbar spine.
2. Moderate osteopenia of the left hip.
She then saw a rheumatologist, whose note said:
"Severe osteoporosis of lumbar spine
and moderate osteoporosis of left hip."
