Norland XR-600 DXA bone densitometer, provides the clinical setting the most advanced technology for today’s in vivo assessment of bone. With a table specified for studies of individuals with a body weight of 202kg within a scan window area of 127cmX67cm this scanner accommodates the largest size range seen in non-whole body scanner marketplace.
Norland XR-600 DXA bone densitometer – Characteristics:
- Compact 6-Foot Table
- Lowest Price Point
- Full Bone Density Assessment
- Too small for whole body composition
- Can be used for small subject/animal soft tissue studies
- Weight Limit 450lbs
Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA)
Gold Standard for assessing bone density
- Used to assess osteopenia and osteoporosis (T-score & Z-score)
- Standard measurements performed at hip, spine, or forearm
- Minimal x-ray emitted to perform assessment
- Reimbursable
Gold standard for measuring body composition
- True three compartment model for assessing body composition – Bone, lean, and fat
- Used in weight loss/bariatrics to monitor what type of weight is lost, it is critical to minimize the loss of lean mass because it is metabolically active
- Segmental tool that allows for assessing regional (abdominal, trunk, leg, etc) body composition
Designed by Densitometrists for the Non-Whole Body Clinical Setting
- The Model XR-600 from Norland, at Swissray provides the clinical setting the most advanced technology for today’s in vivo assessment of bone. With a table specified for studies of individuals with a body weight of 202kg within a scan window area of 127cmX67cm this scanner accommodates the largest size range seen in non-whole body scanner marketplace.
- Fitted with advanced dynamic filtration technology and a pair of advanced dynamic filtration technology and a pair of advanced detectors dedicated to independently register high and low energy the Model XR-600 automatically delivers optimized studies that never experience x-ray flux starvation or saturation.
- Provided with optimized high and low energy count rates the XR-600 delivers swift, precise and accurate studies independent of body size and operator-based analysis. The combined independence from body size and operator-based determinations in scanning and analysis will over time deliver useful clinical studies free of doubt to the clinical community.
