Abstract: Bone Mineral Density (BMD) trial retrieves the vigor of the bone in the medical arena. Peril of the subjects bone fracture are appraised or estimated by the BMD experiment. Risk condition of the bone in the low or high state is defined as osteopenia or osteoporosis disease respectively. The proclamation identifies the manifestation of this disease which is the most communal bone disease. In the past medical era, the BMD is assessed by conservative x-rays. There are lot of techniques available to measure BMD. One of the newer technique is the DEXA scanning method. Thus it is mandatory to have a regular databank in Dexa images for the young sprout scholars to carry out their research in fracture risk analysis from the Dexa images. The proposed updated version of databank is dubbed as DEXSIT-V2, a timely approach to bid a set of images of Arm, Spine and Femur (Right and Left) bones for osteoporotic images. The subject information such as age, gender and distinct Id are construed in the databank.
