About Bone Density Ultrasound screening tests . . .





The Sunlight MiniOmni™ bone sonometer provides an exceptionally affordable, professional solution for early assessment of osteoporosis. It enables reliable, accurate, non-invasive and safe monitoring of bone density – with exceptional cost-effectiveness. Its ultra-small size and weight (similar to and even lighter than a hardcover book), intuitive ease of use, and convenient USB-port connectivity to Windows™ 7/8-based PCs and laptops makes it ideal for use in any physician's office or medical clinic, pharmacy, annual checkup center or other retail venue.

Proven Accuracy
MiniOmni is based on the same proprietary Sunlight Omnipath™ quantitative ultrasound technology that has been proven in thousands of Sunlight Omnisense installations worldwide.
 We provide a 30 minute consultation. First the patient is asked a series of questions to establish an individuals personal details. Then a series of readings is taking on either the forearm or leg, depending on the individual. A reading is then immediately available. Your operator will print your results for you, and explain them in detail. A follow up plan might be recommened. 
When necessary we can provide the patient with a medical aid invoice to claim reimbusement from comprehensive medical aids.

NEW TECHNOLOGY IN OSTEOPOROSIS TESTING


Osteoporosis is best defined as a medical condition in which the bones become brittle and fragile from loss of tissue, typically as a result of hormonal changes, or deficiency of calcium or vitamin D. It is referred to as the "silent disease" as one tends to take their bone health for granted until it is too late. The tragedy of having low bone mineral density is that is effects your quality of life.

The great news is that osteoporosis is treatable and those with a low bone mineral density reading can reverse those effects with the correct treatment. Previously it was necessary to go to a hospital radiology department for a DEXA scan. This is expensive, with medical aid generally not covering the full cost, intrusive and inconvenient and all this makes it far too easy to put off having your bone mineral density tested!

New technology  from BeamMed allows us to to do a scanning test for osteoporosis using ultrasound technology at a fraction of the cost and in a convenient location. No more excuses! Now is the time to know your bone density and take measures to strengthen your bones.
