DEXA bone densitometer MEDIX90

fan beampencil beamfor hip examination

Overview
MEDIX Series is a family of DXA bone densitometry and body composition systems designed for clinical assessment of skeletal and metabolic health. Manufactured in France and delivered with an intuitive in‑house software platform, the series supports BMD measurement, fracture risk assessment and comprehensive body composition analysis.

Product range highlights

• Multiple DXA technologies to match market needs: pencil beam and 2D fan beam models
• Clinical applications: bone mineral density (BMD), osteoporosis assessment, FRAX fracture risk tools, vertebral assessment (DVA), hip structural analysis (HSA)
• Integrated acquisition and analysis software with reporting and connectivity

MEDIX90

• Fast pencil beam DXA technology optimized for compact installations
• Low X‑ray dose for patient and operator safety
• Compact footprint for small exam rooms

MEDIX DR

• 2D fan beam DXA for high‑speed scanning
• Powerful detector with 256 elements for improved image quality
• Low X‑ray dose and rapid acquisition for clinical throughput

Body composition analysis

• Large whole‑body scan area enabling regional and global composition assessment
• Fat and lean tissue color mapping, Android/Gynoid ratios
• Metabolic indicators including Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT)
• Tools for sarcopenia and body composition monitoring

Software & workflow

• In‑house intuitive DXA software for acquisition, automatic analysis and personalised reporting
• Advanced connectivity: full DICOM support for PACS integration
• Optimised workflow: fast scanning, easy patient repositioning, automatic measurements and simple sharing
• Automatic reports and letters for patients and physicians; trend graphs and multi‑user access

Clinical applications / Target environments

• Imaging centers and radiology departments
• Rheumatology and endocrinology clinics
• Geriatrics and osteoporosis clinics
• Gynecology, bariatrics, nutrition and sports medicine
• Pediatrics and orthopedics

Regulatory & manufacturer information
MEDIX90 and MEDIX DR are Class IIb medical devices manufactured by APELEM and bear CE marking. They are certified in the European Union under MDD 93/42/EEC by SGS (CE1639) for bone densitometry indications. Photos are non‑contractual.

3D‑DXA
Optional 3D‑DXA capability converts routine BMD images into 3D visualisations of the femur, separating cortical and trabecular compartments to support advanced risk estimation and clinical decision making.
