It was an ultrasound. It showed that I had a bit of osteoporosis. I called the hospital and asked them if I needed a doctor's order to get a full bone density test. They said no. I had the test and my bones were fine, even my wrist! I don't know about the other tests, but I would be wary. Call places and price these tests out at your local hospital. Some of them aren't that expensive. Good luck! I had a bone mass density test done on my wrist at a walk-in test place. It was an ultrasound. It showed that I had a bit of osteoporosis.
