  • Bone Density Testing | Salem Hospital | Mass General Brigham
  • During a bone density test, a technologist calculates the density of your bones using an X-ray scan. We use dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry DXA to conduct bone density tests. DXA uses two different X-ray beams to estimate bone density in your spine and hip. Since strong, dense bones allow less of the X-ray beam to pass through them, the DXA test compares the percentage of each X-ray beam blocked by bone and soft tissue.

  • For more than 10 years she battled constant wheezing, horrible coughs, bronchitis and upper respiratory infections. “It got so that I knew when it crossed from a cold into pneumonia and I’d go to my doctor or the emergency room for X-rays and medication,” says McPherson. During a particularly bad cold in the winter of 2005, McPherson went to the emergency room at Beverly Hospital to have a chest X-ray, which she knew would diagnose her latest bout with pneumonia. Upon reviewing her X-ray, the doctor treating her also ordered a CT scan of her chest and found a mass in her bronchi. However, he did offer her a ray of hope. “He said if there was anyone who could try to save my lung, it was NSMC’s Dr. Dean Donahue.”
