I had my Bone Density Test using an Achilles InSight Bone Densitometer at 6.41 pm on 11 July 2009 at the booth of "Wyeth Consumer Healthcare" at "Health & U" Mega Health Exhibition @ Suntec Convention Hall, jointly organized by The Straits Times Mind Your Body and Lianhe Zaobao LOHAS (11 & 12 July 2009).

Normal - Healthy Level of T-score is between 0 and 2.
Normal - Borderline Level of T-score is between -1 and 0
Low Bone Mass Level of T-score is between -1 and -2.5
