We are excited to announce we have received our first Echolight order in Canada from Dave Williams - President/Owner of Thunder Bay Diagnostics!
About Echolight:
Echolight Medical has developed the first clinically available method for the direct non-ionizing measurement of lumbar and femoral bone mineral density (BMD).
The device, EchoS, utilizes proprietary R.E.M.S. (Radiofrequency Echographic Multi Spectrometry) technology to scan the lumbar vertebrae and proximal femur. The EchoS rapidly generates a medical report that includes BMD, T-score and Z-score. In addition, the system automatically assesses the quality of bone micro architecture, independent of BMD, and provides a five-year probability of a major osteoporosis fracture.
EchoS offers significantly increased levels of accuracy, sensitivity to bone mass changes and diagnostic reproducibility over DXA systems. This, coupled with the absence of ionizing radiation, allows for osteoporosis diagnosis at the point of care more broadly and at an earlier stage. It also enables more accurate monitoring post diagnosis.
