Pechersky Clinic offers a new unique service for its patients - examination with the latest ultrasound densitometer EchoStation. This device provides quick and painless diagnosis of bone condition, making it accessible to a wide range of patients.
What is EchoStation?
EchoStation is an innovative device for measuring bone density using ultrasound. Compared to traditional methods such as X-ray densitometry (DXA), EchoStation uses non-ionizing ultrasound waves, making the procedure completely safe for patients. Thanks to this device, doctors can assess the risk of osteoporosis and other bone-related diseases without exposing the body to harmful radiation.Key benefits of EchoStation densitometry
Safety and no radiation
Patients no longer need to worry about the possible effects of X-ray radiation, as ultrasound does not harm the body. This makes the device convenient for frequent examinations, as well as for children, pregnant women and patients with chronic diseases.Speed and convenience of the procedure
An EchoStation examination takes only a few minutes. The patient can undergo the procedure at a convenient time, without special preparation or long-term rehabilitation.Portability and accessibility
The EchoStation device has compact dimensions, which allows it to be used not only in stationary conditions, but also in outpatient medical examinations.Painlessness and comfort
The bone density measurement procedure is completely painless. The patient does not feel any discomfort during or after the examination.High diagnostic accuracy
EchoStation uses the latest technology to obtain accurate results, allowing you to identify possible problems in a timely manner and prescribe effective treatment.How is the EchoStation densitometer examination performed?
The examination procedure is very simple and quick. The patient needs to lie comfortably on a couch or in a chair, depending on the type of examination. The doctor applies a special gel to the skin, which improves contact between the sensor and the skin, after which the sensor is applied to the area to be examined - usually the thigh or forearm. Ultrasound waves pass through bone tissue and based on their behavior, the device determines bone density.
The results of the examination can be obtained within a few minutes after the procedure. They allow the doctor to draw conclusions about the condition of the patient's bone tissue and, if necessary, prescribe additional tests or treatment.
Who is densitometry indicated for?
EchoStation is suitable for a wide range of patients, but it is especially recommended for use in the following cases:- Patients over 50 years of age. With age, bone density decreases, which increases the risk of osteoporosis and fractures.
- Postmenopausal women. During this period, there is a sharp decrease in estrogen levels, which negatively affects bones.
- People with chronic diseases. Some chronic conditions can affect bone tissue and increase the risk of osteoporosis.
- Patients after fractures. If you have already had fractures, this may be a sign of weakened bones, so it is important to get checked.
- Athletes. Excessive physical activity can lead to changes in bone tissue, so regular check-ups can help prevent injuries.
