What T-score indicates for osteoporosis?

A T-score of -2.5 or lower is indicative of osteoporosis. The T-score is a comparison of a person's bone density to that of a healthy young adult, with lower scores reflecting decreased bone density. A T-score between -1.0 and -2.5 indicates osteopenia, which is a precursor to osteoporosis. Regular screening and assessment of bone health are important for prevention and management.
