DXL Calscan by Demetech - Innovation in osteoporosis diagnosis
DXL, Dual X-ray and Laser, is the proprietary technology that gives superior reliability through unsurpassed accuracy and precision. DXL Calscan is our first instrument based on this technology.
Demetech´s ambition is to lead the technological development in osteoporosis diagnosis through constant innovation and close customer contact. Through this innovation it''s now possible to diagnose and categorize patients early, which will ultimately enable prevention of osteoporosis.
Dual X-ray and Laser, commonly called DXL, was invented by a team of Swedish doctors, researchers and engineers. It combines a dual-wavelength X-ray source with laser definition of the measurement area. The result is that soft tissue and fatty tissue are more accurately excluded from the bone mineral density results.
The Calscan results are virtually operator-independent due to its automatic region of interest. This feature finds the correct scanning site on each patient automatically, allowing different operators to obtain the same high-quality results. In addition, Calscan uses automatic digital calibration before each patient scan, further enhancing the reproducibility and accuracy of results.
The DXL Calscan Workstation software is a very user-friendly, Windows-based program that keeps a history of all your patient scans. Graphic presentation of multiple patient scans shows BMD progress in response to therapy, supporting compliance. Scan results can even be enlarged on-screen during patient consultations.
The messy gels and operator-dependent positioning required by other devices are not necessary with Calscan. With a scanning time of less than one minute, automatic calibration and automatic acquisition of the region of interest, you can scan as many patients as you like – without needing to book an extra visit.
Everyone should have the right to know their bone status with a quick and reliable scan – before it''s too late.
