Today, Khun Earn accompanies her mother for bones and joints health checkup at kdms Hospital to welcome the New Year. Come join us for the checkup process and explore what aspects are inspected.

1. Health checkup by specialized surgeons

✅ Examined by specialized surgeons at kdms who have expertise in specific areas with over 10 years of experience in treating bones and joints. The first process was performed by Napon Sinthuvanich, M.D.

2. Knee Radiography (X-Ray)

✅ Weight-bearing knee digital radiography to assess knee osteoarthritis and bone deformities, performed by a radiological technologist.

As my mom is over 65 years old and has never been screened for osteoporosis, the doctor recommended a bone density testing to assess the risk of osteoporosis using bone density screening or bone mass measurement.

Bone Mineral Density (BMD)

After completing the examination process at the radiology unit, they proceed to the co-treatment space, a room that brings together physicians, sports scientists, and physiotherapists, who work collaboratively to provide treatment, guidance, and individualized care for each case.

3. Time up and go test (TUG Test)
