Schick AccuDEXA BMD Portable Bone Densitometer

Schick AccuDEXA BMD Portable Bone Densitometer – Tabletop DEXA Scanner.

Operating the AccuDEXA is just super easy. After placing the patient’s hand in the unit, simply follow a simple set of commands in the view screen. In 30 seconds you have the results you need. It’s as simple as taking their blood pressure! AccuDEXA assesses the phalanx of the middle finger. This BMD value is a relative indicator of bone density elsewhere in the body. The Schick AccuDEXA BMD Portable Bone Densitometer estimates can also be used as an aid to the physician in determining fracture risk.

Additionally, phalangeal density tests have shown in studies with Radiographic Absorptiometry to be more predictive than both forearm and spine BMD tests in predicting vertebral deformity. AccuDEXA: The only name to consider in BMD assessment.

Low Radiation – Scatter to the operator is only 1/15,000th of the weekly radiation exposure limit. Patient exposure is 0.0003 uSv or 1/150,000th of a typical chest x-ray.

Clinically Proven – The Schick AccuDEXA BMD Portable Bone Densitometer analyzes the finger, a site with over 50 years of clinical acceptance. accuDEXA’s low precision error (<1%) allows for the detection of changes over time.

Ease of use – accuDEXA’s finger measurement procedure requires no messy creams or gels, and the patient does not need to remove any garments in order to take the test. The scan time is less than ten seconds, and the overall exam can be completed in two minutes. With its touchscreen front panel, accuDEXA is completely self contained and does not require an external computer.
