Digital Radiology BMD (Bone Mineral Density) assessment
CompuMed OsteoGram® add-on Software

Based on patented technology, the OsteoGram uses standard or digital x-ray equipment to provide clinicians with a cost-effective method of measuring BMD.
The OsteoGram requires no special training and has been cleared by the FDA for commercial use.
The OsteoGram allows the entire process of assessing BMD to be performed at point-of-care facilities, with access to radiology equipment, in less than five minutes. Once the required hand x-ray is taken, the OsteoGram software analysis program imports the image and produces the BMD report.
While the original film-based version of the OsteoGram utilizes standard x-ray equipment and a standard desktop scanner, the new digital version of the OsteoGram automatically performs the analysis on digital (filmless) x-ray equipment or network servers, providing enhanced utilization of existing digital equipment.
The OsteoGram offers unsurpassed clinical performance, access and convenience at a fraction of the price of most other BMD testing devices.
Learn how to capture a potentially significant source of revenue that you may now be losing to external referral of patients in need of BMD testing -- something that can easily be done at your facility today with CompuMed's OsteoGram® software system.
