Bone Densitometry

Bone Densitometry systems determine bone mass by measuring radiation absorption by the skeleton. Different systems use one of several common techniques, including single-photon absorptiometry (SPA) of the forearm and heel, dual-photon absorptiometry (DPA) and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) of the spine and hip, quantitative computed tomography (QCT) of the spine and forearm, radiographic absorptiometry (RA) of the hand, and quantitative ultrasound (QU).

Hologic Delphi systems integrate bone mineral density (BMD) measurement with Instant Vertebral Assessment (IVA).
