iDXATomorrow’s technology … today

Innovation and DedicationiDXA is a prime example of GE Healthcare’s breakthrough strategy with emphasis on image quality, ease of use, precision and productivity.

iDXA provides unprecedented image quality with the best demonstrated precision and accuracy. iDXA comes with a highly automated platform and integrated connectivity.

Precision you can detectOsteoporosis treatment requires some time to monitor. Measuring with iDXA allows detecting bone changes 2 times faster than with other systems*, which is due to the CZT-HD detector that enhances precision allowing you to track bone changes that previously were too small to detect. Moreover, the Lunar exclusive calibration technology takes the entire body into account by performing a 6-point calibration with normal, osteopenic and osteoportic BMD values, as well as lean, normal and obese values. Cutting-edge technology

iDXA’s unique integrated x-ray technology is designed from the ground up to deliver ultra-stable output needed for unsurpassed precision and image clarity.

Incredible

Unprecedented image quality

iDXA delivers crisp, high resolution images of all skeletal sites, revealing detail never seen before. It clearly renders the end plates on spine images and identifies intervertebral spaces easily. You can see proximal femur details like the femoral head, visualize cortical thickness, and see unprecedented total body images.

Dual-energy Vertebral Assessment (DVA) provides rapid, dual-energy images of the AP and lateral spine, allowing you to visually identify the presence of vertebral fractures and helps eliminate the need to cross-reference lateral radiographs because of difficult-to-read imagery.

Automated reporting Composer automatically generates patient reports, including assessment and follow-up recommendations. Scan results are based on predefined criteria established by the World Health Organization (WHO), the International Society for Clinical Densitometry (ISCD) and the National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF). Composer determines the lowest T-score among user-defined regions, and automatically inserts the corresponding assessment and recommendation, as defined by the physician.

Intelligent designiDXA’s open architecture accommodates patients up to 450 lbs/180 kg and allows for easy decubitus positioning of longer subjects.

Intuitive

Intuitive features and enhancements automatically optimize the process for ease of use.

No 2 people are alikeWith the wide range of body sizes, the distance of a patient’s spine or femur from the tabletop can vary considerably and this can cause inaccurate area and bone mineral measurements. TruView image reconstruction, just like CT images are created, eliminates inherent magnification and distortion effects. TruView assesses the size of the anatomy accurately without making assumptions, providing true area and BMC measurements of the bone as well as geometric dimensions necessary for Femur Strength Index and Hip Axis length studies.

Computer Assisted DensitometryCAD, GE patented technology saves you time and effort by automatically identifying potential acquisition and analysis errors.

CAD alerts you to incorrect positioning, unusual anatomy, high-density areas and artifacts, and makes recommenda- tion for correction via multimedia help.

Advanced Hip Assessment (AHA) AHA provides a comprehensive analysis of cortical thickness with density dependent bone mapping, geometric param-eters, CSMI, neck-shaft angle, HAL and Femur Strength Index — all integrated into one package for clinical convenience.

• Hip Axis Length (HAL) HAL has been demonstrated in prospective studies as an independent adjunct to femur bone density in predicting fracture.

• Cross Sectional Moment of Inertia (CSMI) CSMI provides femur strength indication when using the iDXA for research into load-bearing capacity of the hip.

IntelligentHistorically, DXA has ‘just’ assessed bone – one part of the overall body wellness picture. iDXA takes a three point assessment. With gender specific reference data, iDXA assess bone, fat, and lean tissue that gives you a com-prehensive view of total body health in one single exam. You can analyze body composition, including fat percentage and distribution, for expanded clinical and research applications.

Predicting the futureiDXA offers a unique assessment of hip and overall fracture risk, based on femoral neck T-score, age, and gender. The personalized risk calculator (Kanis Model) estimates the patient’s specific 10-year fracture risk.

The Lunar exclusive DICOM solution meets any PACS con-nectivity requirements, while achieving IHE5 compliance. Features include DICOM structured reports, image storage and commitment, DICOM worklist and DICOM print. It sends reports and images to your PACS server in color or black and white, and can integrate with your RIS worklist and modality performance procedure step.

The optional HL7 feature allows the iDXA to receive and transmit records. That includes receiving patient demograph-ics and exporting patient exam results. This integrates your densitometer with your existing electronic medical records, thereby closing the loop on your records and billing system. HL7 can also attach images to your compliant EMR.

The Multi-User Database MUDBA option allows multiple com-puter workstations to access DXA scan files simultaneously, even remotely. Multiple images from GE Lunar bone densi-tometers can be saved in a common database.

The TeleDensitometry option connects the iDXA to existing computer networks and phone lines, so you can email or fax DXA reports directly from the densitometer to referring physicians.

IntegratedDensitometry on the goDEXTER™ enables you to view images and results anytime, anywhere. DEXTER is a PDA-like BMD review and dictation system that includes pan and zoom for bone image display at the same aspect ratio as a computer monitor.

On Demand Digital ServiceIt’s all about speed. When you contact GE Healthcare for service, our on-line engineers can electronically link to your system and work to quickly get you back up running. If a field engineer needs to be dispatched, he or she will be prepared with a system diagnosis - and if required, have the right parts on hand. In addition, our applications specialists can reach out at your request to support or train. Ask your sales representative how.
