Product Description:

The GE Lunar DPX Duo DEXA is a enCORE software platform, based on Windows providing high performance scanning and clinical utility.   This bone densitometer can be added to any office with zero change in available square footage, thanks to its ability to double as an examination table for regular patient visits.  The DPX Duo delivers reliable bone mineral density measurements in seconds, and at a low radiation dose.  Unprecedented ease of use and high precision is provided by advanced OneScan and SmartScan features.  

• Detect early bone changes in your patients
• Equipped with the enCORE™ software platform
• Advanced OneScan & SmartScan features
• Automated patient scanning
• Graphical user interface
• Doubles as a full exam table 

Benefits:

• Automated
• Patient scanning is quick and automated with SmartScan. This unique measurement technique automatically adjusts the scan path real-time during the examination. The intuitive graphical user interface combined with AutoAnalysis calculates patient results with no operator intervention in more than 95% of clinical cases
• Efficient
• OneScan automatically combines scans of the spine and hip into one exam; both scans are acquired in one process and evaluated in one analysis.
• Confident
• The optional DualFemur feature automatically measures both the left and right femurs in one fast scan. DualFemur improves accuracy by identifying the femur with the lowest density. The 30%[2] improvement in precision seen with the combined L/R BMD enhances the ability to monitor response to therapy at this critical fracture site.
• Seamless
• The Lunar DPX Duo patient report combines key diagnostic results. It prominently displays T-scores along with fracture risk assessment graphs based on the World Health Organization (WHO) criteria for diagnosing osteoporosis. This makes result interpretation and fracture risk assessment seamless.
• Speed and ease of use
• With minimal training, any member of your staff can get fast, reliable results with the Windows-based enCORE software. The intuitive graphical user interface combined with the AutoAnalaysis calculates patient results with no operator intervention in more than 95 percent of clinical cases*.
• The Composer option quickly creates physician customized reports with automated extraction of the patient’s results.
• Quality
• Computer Assisted Densitometry (CAD) automatically studies acquisition inputs and the acquired image, looking for errors and patient irregularities. When it detects anomalies, it displays explanations and instructions. CAD helps speed throughput and reduces errors. It also may help technologists provide diagnostic- quality information to the interpreting physician.
• Connectivity
• The DPX Duo’s TeleDensitometry feature sends digital, paperless reports as faxes attached to standard e-mail messages. These results can be viewed on any personal computer without the need for special software. The optional DEXTER PDA software allows you to review scans anywhere, anytime.
• The DICOM and Multi-user Database Access options ensure maximum connectivity
