Osteoporosis is a skeletal disease caused by low bone mineral density (BMD) and micro-architectural deterioration of bone tissue, leading to bone fragility and increased fracture risk. By using bone densitometer, we get the values of bone density in terms of T-score and based on T-score values bone is determined to be a normal bone or a osteoporosis/ osteopenia bone. IDEXA machines are used for obtaining accurate result and KNN Classifier algorithm together can differentiate between osteoporosis and osteopenia.
