The full name of bone mineral density is bone mineral density, which is an important indicator to measure bone strength, generally based on the mass of minerals per unit volume as the main unit, which is an important examination method for clinical diagnosis of osteoporosis and evaluation of osteoporosis ** effect. Ultrasonic bone densitometer is used for bone densitometry according to the different speed of ultrasound in different bone density media, which is generally used for bone density screening and rapid examination.
1. Regular bone density tests for children can prevent calcium deficiency in children, and bone development in childhood will affect bone health throughout life.
2. Low bone density will also be prone to fractures, and even the possibility of injury during sports in the future will be much greater than that of other children. Therefore, bone density testing is very important to prevent possible bone problems and normal development in children.
3. After calcium deficiency in children, bone mineral density is obviously low, if calcium is not supplemented in time, children will have softening of bones, causing deformities of children's bones, such as X-shaped legs, 0-shaped legs, etc.
4. If the child is growing very rapidly during the growth and development period, especially in the infant period, it is necessary to detect bone density in time, pay attention to whether calcium is lost, and supplement calcium in time.
5. If the child has a history of long-term use of glucocorticoids, it is also necessary to measure the bone density of the child in time, because the application of glucocorticoids will cause the loss of bone calcium, resulting in a significant decrease in bone density.
6. For children in the critical period of growth and development, ultrasound bone density test has the advantages of no radiation, no trauma, no pain, short detection time, and accurate diagnostic results.
Kangyu Medical Ultrasonic Bone Densitometer uses high-precision ultrasonic technology to quickly detect children's bone condition through the radius, the detection process is safe, accurate, radiation-free, and the operation process is simple, and the test result can be issued in 40 seconds. Ultrasonic bone densitometry analyzer can be widely used in general hospitals, maternal and child health care hospitals, township health centers, community health service centers, pharmacies and other institutions.
For bone densitometry in children, ultrasound bone densitometry is more appropriate.
High safety: Ultrasonic bone densitometer essentially uses ultrasound technology for detection without using any radioactive substances, so it is safer than dual-energy X-ray bone densitometer and will not produce any *** on children's physical health
Easy to operate: Testing with an ultrasonic bone densitometer does not require special preparation and environmental conditions, and is a very simple and fast test method that does not require waiting and can be completed in just a few minutes of operation, making it ideal for children.
High accuracy: Ultrasonic bone densitometer has less error and relatively high accuracy in measuring bone density.
Scope of application: Ultrasound bone densitometer is suitable for children of different ages, whether they are growing or pre-adult, this test can be performed.
In the children's bone density report, the z-value data is common, because childhood is in the critical period of growth and development, and the bone status of each age is different, so the bone health status of the age group is judged by comparing it with peers.
Normal bone: z 0
Mild bone deficiency: -10
Moderate osteopathy: -25. Severe osteopathy: Z-25
