kehilangan jisim tulang akut
to me, 'kehilangan tulang' just sounds so weird, it sounds like losing bones, not bone loss.
what actually meant by bone loss is the loss of the bone mass, and I think it's important to add the word 'jisim' to your sentence to make the meaning clear.
this is just like what we do in Bahasa Indonesia, bone loss is translated as 'kehilangan massa tulang', not 'kehilangan tulang'.
