Osteoporosis, as a chronic disease with high latency and wide harm, its early screening and precise monitoring are the keys to clinical intervention. However, large-scale bone density testing equipment is mostly fixed in the radiology department. Due to limitations such as site and transportation, it is difficult to cover diverse scenarios such as primary care and bedside assessment. The launch of the DXA-500B portable dual-energy X-ray bone densitometer has broken through this barrier with its core advantages of “precision + portability”, extending professional-level detection capabilities to every clinical demand scenario.
For bone density testing, “accuracy” and “efficiency” have always been the key demands. The equipment adopts the industry’s gold standard dual-energy X-ray absorption method, combined with advanced conical beam surface imaging technology, and supplemented by professional compensation algorithms, achieving rapid scanning within less than 4 seconds. This advantage is particularly prominent in health check-up and large-scale screening scenarios, capable of completing batch tests in a short time and providing the examinees with quantified bone health reports as well as personalized exercise and calcium supplementation suggestions. Meanwhile, rapid scanning means that patients do not need to maintain a fixed posture for a long time, making it particularly suitable for the elderly and those with limited mobility. The accuracy of its test results fully meets the clinical diagnostic requirements, making each measurement a reliable basis for diagnosis and treatment.
Accurate test results require clear data analysis to support diagnosis, which is particularly crucial in the clinical work of orthopedics, geriatrics and endocrinology. The DXA-500B is equipped with a powerful function of segmented locking and analysis of regions of interest, which can automatically identify and lock the key detection areas at the distal end of the forearm’s ulna and radius, and also supports the display of bone density values in zones. For endocrinology departments, it can accurately assess the bone mass changes of menopausal women and hormone users. For orthopedic surgeons, it is possible to clearly assess the bone recovery of patients after fracture surgery and joint replacement. For the geriatrics department, it can closely monitor the bone mass loss process of the elderly population, providing detailed data references for the early screening, condition assessment and treatment effect monitoring of osteoporosis, making the diagnosis of the three core departments more targeted.
Radiation protection for medical staff has always been a key concern for medical institutions. From the very beginning of its design, the DXA-500B has fully taken this demand into account. It adopts an innovative design that combines the mainframe and the notebook, achieving remote operation. Whether conducting bedside tests for stroke rehabilitation patients in the wards of general hospitals or carrying out centralized screening for residents in community health service centers, medical staff can complete the entire process operations such as parameter setting and initiating scans without being on close duty at the testing site, effectively staying away from radiation threats and significantly reducing the risk of occupational exposure. Ensure that medical treatment work is carried out efficiently in a safe environment.
The thoughtfulness of the DXA-500B lies in its “flexibility” and “peace of mind” – it is equipped with both wired and wireless measurement modes, providing flexible solutions for different departmental scenarios. At the same time, it has turned “portability” into genuine clinical efficiency: the body is refined and compact to the right degree, without any superfluous or cumbersome designs. One medical worker can easily manage it, carry it around and move it freely, without having to ask colleagues for help or apply for a fixed computer room specifically. Whether it is the transfer and borrowing between departments in the hospital, quickly make up for the testing needs; Whether it follows the public health team to the countryside to complete the regional bone health census, it can quickly get started with a low threshold. It has made bone health testing as convenient and accessible as blood pressure measurement, truly achieving a transformation in the diagnosis and treatment model from “people seeking equipment” to “equipment seeking people”.
Compared with traditional large-scale equipment, the mobile screening capability of DXA-500B has a greater cost advantage. In community free medical consultations and health kiosks for screening, the equipment can be directly brought to the event site, eliminating the need for the examinees to travel back and forth to the hospital. This not only reduces the screening costs for the organizers but also enhances the participation of the public. This feature of “providing services wherever there is a demand” enables bone density testing to no longer be confined to fixed machine rooms.
From hormone-related bone mass assessment in the endocrinology department, to postoperative bone monitoring in the orthopedics department, and then to routine bone health screening in the geriatrics department, the DXA-500B portable dual-energy X-ray bone densitometer, with its precise detection capability, efficient operation experience, and safe protective design, precisely meets the clinical needs of the three core departments. It not only reduces the workload of medical staff in the department and enhances the medical experience of patients, but also builds a key bridge of “early screening – early diagnosis – early treatment” in the osteoporosis prevention and treatment system, becoming a practical tool for orthopedics, geriatrics and endocrinology departments to safeguard patients’ bone health.
