DEXA bone densitometer Horizon®

fan beam

The Horizon DXA system is the latest in densitometry technology, but the dual energy X-ray does more than just measure bone density. The Horizon DXA system has features for a complete fracture risk assessment and more. Single Energy Femur Exam Manage patients1 concerns about long-term bisphosphonate use with the 15-second single energy femur scan that allows visualization of potential incomplete atypical femur fractures. Vertebral Fracture Assessment The HD Instant Vertebral Fracture™ assessment dramatically improves the detection of vertebral fractures by doubling the resolution of previously available techniques with a low dose, single energy image. Abdominal Aortic Calcification The HD Instant Vertebral Fracture assessment also allows you to visualize calcified plaque in the abdominal aorta, which may be a significant indicator of heart disease and stroke.2-4 Exclusive to Hologic, this feature provides vital information that may link coronary heart disease, the leading cause of death for women. Advanced Body Composition® Assessment With InnerCore™ Visceral Fat Assessment, the Advanced Body Composition assessment is a more comprehensive way to measure body composition compared to other methods on the market. It provides you % body fat, total lean mass, bone density, limb comparison for muscle imbalance detection, visceral fat and more. We call it the BodyLogic™ scan. Powerful images. Clear answers. High-resolution ceramic digital detectors array featuring ultra fast, high output, low noise ceramic detectors that provide better bone mapping and images. High frequency dual energy X-ray source that is smaller and lighter than previous generations.
