Intended Use

The DPX-RX Bone Densitometer provides an estimate of BMD at the lumbar Spine and proximal femur regions. This BMD value can then be compared to a reference population at the sole discretion of the physician. The use of the DPX-RX Bone Densitometer is restricted to prescription use only.

Device Description

The DPX-RX Bone Densitometer provides an estimation of Bone Mineral Density (BMD in g/cm2) of the lumbar spine and the proximal femur.
