Bone Densitometers/Ultrasound Scanners
Osteometer MediTech specialises in the development,
manufacturing and marketing of diagnostic tools aimed at bone metabolic
diseases, such as osteoporosis - a disease that affects every fourth woman
passing the menopause and that places a substantial burden on the health care
system world-wide.
 The
main product of Osteometer is the
DTX-200 DexaCare a unique x-ray densitometer for the assessment of bone
density in the distal part of the forearm. The forearm is an excellent site
because the forearm is representative of the total body bone mass. The DTX-200
DexaCare has won world-wide recognition for enabling fast, easy, reliable,
inexpensive and cost-effective assessment as well as follow-up of bone density.
This has led to several thousand units being installed throughout the world.
Product Info DTX-200.
 Osteometer
has also launched an ultrasound device, the
DTU-one UltraSure. It is a major break-through in the assessment of osteoporotic
fracture risk as it creates a high-resolution image of the scanned bone, the
calcaneus. This unique feature provides the definition of a specific region of
interest (ROI) resulting in unsurpassed reproducibility. The DTU-one UltraSure
holds a considerable possibility for widespread clinical use, mainly related to
its lack of radiation exposure and low cost. Product
Info DTU-one.
