Function:
The primary function of the Ultrasonic BMD Analyzer is to noninvasively measure bone mineral density and provide insights into bone strength. It accomplishes this through the following steps:
Ultrasonic Transmission: The device emits ultrasonic waves that pass through bone tissue. During transmission, these waves experience changes in attenuation and sound speed due to the bone's density and composition.
Ultrasonic Detection: The device's sensors detect the altered ultrasonic waves after they have passed through the bone, measuring their changes in amplitude and speed.
Calculation of BMD: By analyzing the ultrasonic wave alterations, the analyzer calculates bone mineral density—a critical indicator of bone health.
Features:
Ultrasonic Technology: The device employs advanced ultrasonic technology for noninvasive bone density assessment, eliminating the need for ionizing radiation.
Noninvasive Assessment: The noninvasive nature of the measurement process ensures patient comfort and safety, making it suitable for individuals of all ages.
Development Monitoring: The analyzer aids in monitoring the physiological development of children by assessing their bone mineral density.
Bone Fracture Risk Assessment: For the elderly, the device offers valuable information to assess the risk of bone fractures, guiding preventive measures.
Precise Measurement: The device provides precise measurements of bone mineral density, contributing to accurate diagnosis and assessment.
Application Flexibility: The analyzer's versatile application scope caters to various healthcare settings, including health centers, community hospitals, and private clinics.
Advantages:
Non-Radiation Assessment: The use of ultrasonic technology eliminates the need for ionizing radiation, ensuring patient safety during bone density measurement.
