Innovative Bone Densitometers to Enable Rapid and Accurate Screening

Finding changes in bone density as early as possible is necessary to build bone mass and restrict bone loss.

Finding changes in bone density as early as possible is necessary to build bone mass and restrict bone loss. Bone densitometers play a crucial role in determining bone density and taking necessary measures based on results. More than half of the total citizens of the U.S. of the age 50 and more possesses high risk of bone fracture. This made the osteoporosis an urgent public health concern. The role of technologically advanced and innovative bone densitometers is important in addressing the concern. Market players have been launching new products that address the issues existing in current densitometers.

New products are able to measure density of large subjects and provide accurate measurement. In addition, new technologies have been incorporated in products to offer ease in use and rapid screening. The demand for bone densitometers is expected to increase in the coming years. According to the report published by Allied Market Research, the global bone densitometer market is estimated to reach $57.42 billion by 2030. Following are some of the activities taking place across the world.

The trend of new product launches has arrived and new bone densitometers are making their way. Norland at Swissray launched the ELITE DXA, a bone densitometer developed for large subjects. Its active scan window size is twice the size of existing bone densitometers. It is used for scanning large bodies that were not able to fit in traditional densitometers. It has an ability to scan subjects that are as tall as 90” and as wide as 54”. The company aimed to provide a gold-standard tool for athletic teams in monitoring performance and nutritional needs, tracking changes in bariatric surgery patients, and determine changes in obese population. Such products will enable accurate measurement of bone density and composition of large objects.

Along with the launch of new products, the trend of incorporating new technologies has arrived. Echolight Medical introduced REMS diagnostic technology in portable bone densitometers. It is a radiation-free technology that has an ability to monitor bone health indicators with more density as compared to other testing methods. This technology can offer bone health scores of patients and carry out an assessment of the risks related to fractures within few minutes. The changes in screening and diagnosing patients with osteoporosis are underway. The ease in use and portability offered by REMS technology enables clinicians in beginning screening earlier than expected and taking meaningful steps to prevent osteoporosis.
