UltraScan™ 650 Forearm Scanner

The UltraScan™ 650 Forearm Scanner is an ultrasound
based device designed to quantitatively assess the radius bone at
the 1/3rd location. This site has been measured with x-rays for decades
and has been shown to be an excellent proxy for fracture risk.The UltraScan™ 650 makes
each radiation-free measurement in about five (5) seconds, with a
reproducibility of 2.7 percent. The UltraScan™ 650 should
allow for much wider diagnosis and detection of individuals at
risk of osteoporotic fracture.

QRT® 250 Heel
Scanner

The QRT® 250 Heel Scanner is an ultrasound based device
designed to quantitatively assess the calcaneus at a largely
trabecular portion of the bone. This site is similar to the site that
has been measured with x-rays for years and has been shown to be an
excellent proxy for fracture risk.The QRT® 250 makes each
radiation-free measurement in about a second, with a reproducibility
of 3.1 percent. The QRT® 250 Heel Scanner—with its
extremely low cost and high precision—should allow for much wider
diagnosis and detection of individuals at risk of osteoporotic fracture.
