The Function, Imaging and Testing (FIT) Resource Core offers standardized functional assessments that are low impact and created for participants of all fitness levels. State of the art DXA and HRpQCT scans are available complete with FIT Core referenced Z-scores. Notably, we provide training in the performance and interpretation of these outcomes. Specimens and tissues related to musculoskeletal health are available through the Indiana Biobank.
