Ultrasonic bone density meters have become commonly used detection equipment in medical institutions. Due to their radiation-free and non-invasive detection, they are widely used in medical institutions at all levels for bone density screening. So, how is an ultrasonic bone density meter operated? Let’s take a look at the usage method of the ultrasonic bone density meter together.
1. Turn on the machine and run the software
First, turn on the computer host, monitor and printer. Then click on the bone density software on the desktop to enter the bone density detection system.
2. Parameter Settings
After entering the system, perform routine Settings such as adding the hospital name, address and contact information, setting the names of the operating doctor and the doctor submitting for examination, and setting the common entries in the medical record, etc.
3. Verification
Before the first measurement each day, the ultrasonic bone density meter needs to be calibrated once to reduce the impact of factors such as environmental temperature on the accuracy of the test results. The calibration is carried out through a dedicated calibration module.
4. Measurement
After verification is correct, input the basic information of the examinee and then conduct the test. You can choose to measure the radius or tibia. After placing the probe in the correct position, start the test. The system will automatically read the data and display the data curve in the graph box. When the data reading is completed and the curve reaches the end point, the measurement is finished.
5. Medical Record interpretation
After the measurement is completed, the test report can be seen in the medical record management. The report will show the T value, Z value, bone index, fracture risk index, etc., and can determine the osteoporosis condition of the examinee.
6. Print the report
In the preview report, the test report of the examinee can be directly printed.
Alright, the above is the usage method of the ultrasonic bone density meter. The basic steps are roughly as follows. For detailed operation, follow the manufacturer’s manual. The entire operation takes a short time, is radiation-free and non-invasive. Through bone density testing, you can quickly understand your bone condition.
