In-Row Scan Combined examination of the lumbar spine & left/right Femur
Provides a low dose, lateral image of the spine (to view all the vertebrae of the
Digital Vertebral spine). The deformation or compression is precisely diagnosed, measured and
Assessment (DVA) classified. This analysis can be either automatic using the Genant’s semi- (DVA)
quantitative classification, or manual using the Genant’s visual classification. Single Energy Dual Energy
Operator can use dual (bone image) or single (attenuation) energy images.
Provides a low dose, AP image of the spine (to view all the vertebrae of the spine).
The Cobb Angle invented by Dr.John Cobb (1948) is used as a standard
measurement to determine and track the progression of scoliosis. The angle of
Cobb Angle
curvature can be measured and reported by drawing lines parallel to the upper
Measurement with AP-
border of the upper vertebral body and the lower border of the lowest vertebra of
DVA
the structural curve, then erecting perpendiculars from these lines to cross each
other, the angle between these perpendiculars is ‘angle of curvature’. Operator
can use dual (bone image) or single (attenuation) energy images

PARAMETERS AVAIBLE ON FINAL MEDICAL REPORT
Bone Mineral Density (BMD) expressed in g/cm2, stands for the mineral density of the bones
Area expressed in cm2, 2D projection of the bone
T-Score: Difference between the patient’s BMD value and the mean BMD value of a young adult
Multisite population of healthy subjects of the same gender and from the same ethnic background as the patient,
divided by the standard deviation of the young population of healthy subjects.
Z-score: Difference between the patient’s BMD value and the mean BMD value of a same age population
of healthy subjects of the same gender and from the same ethnic background as the patient, divided by
the standard deviation of the same age healthy population.
