Measures bone density using ultrasound
The measurement takes about 1 minute
Dry-type Ultrasound BMD with No Radiation
SONOST-2000 is a dry-type ultrasound bone densitometry which is free of the radiation. It enables a swift and easy measurement of Calcaneus by calculating the sound of speed (SOS) and Broadband Ultrasound Attenuation (BUA). Due to its compact design, you can use SONOST-2000 with a laptop for your portable measurement.
SOS and BUA for Measurement of BMD
The ultrasound pulse passing through the bones is significantly attenuated with diffusing signals and absorption by the spongy tissues. And QUS bone mineral density is calculated by SOS and BUA, the data obtained from a density differentiating process of sponge tissues.
