Capable of supporting patients up to 500 lbs (227 kg), it features a 28-inch table height, 24-inch C-arm clearance, and no external shielding required, making installation straightforward in standard clinical spaces. Equipped with 128 detectors and advanced OnePass™ fan beam technology, it delivers rapid, precise scans with low radiation exposure—just 10 seconds for lumbar spine and proximal femur, and under 3 minutes for whole-body assessments, all with doses as low as 0.015 mGy. The system boasts automatic, continuous calibration and quality control, ensuring consistent accuracy without operator intervention. Its high-resolution detector array, dual-energy X-ray generator, and motorized table make it ideal for comprehensive bone health assessments, all within a compact footprint that fits in an 8’ x 10’ room, requiring no special shielding or room modifications.
