EOS Ultra Low Dose 2D/3D Xray Imager
The EOS ultra low dose 2D/3D Xray imager, allows full-body imaging of children and adults in a weight-bearing position that will enable global assessment of balance and posture. An advanced workstation, designed to generate a 3D skeletal image from the two planar images, is under development.
EOS captures a whole or partial body image in a single scan without the need for any digital stitching at a reduced dose. The system takes simultaneous bi-plane images (frontal and lateral).
Information submitted to FDA in support of biospace med's marketing application demonstrated up to 10 times reduction in dose when compared with traditional x-rays with the same image quality. EOS can also generate a 3D skeletal reconstruction from the two simultaneously acquired planar images. This product will also feature automatic measurement software designed to calculate a variety of length and angle calculations between individual bones and joints, potentially helping to evaluate global balance and posture.
EOS is Biospace med's lead product and was founded on a partnership between a Nobel Prize-winning physicist, a team of biomedical engineers, orthopaedic surgeons, and radiologists who have developed a complete orthopaedic imaging solution.
