Norland Excell

Features and Benefits
6' DXA table - using pencil beam technology
Standard sites: AP spine and proximal femur
Small footprint ideal for any office or mobile facility
Faster scan times:
AP Spine < 1.5 minutes Hip < 2.0 minutes

Exclusive Dynamic Filtration compensates for the widest range
in patient thicknesses to ensure every data point receives
proper exposure while eliminating photon saturation or
starvation Exclusive 77-step calibration process allows scanning
of the widest range of subjects without special calibration or
correction of data Norland-pioneered fracture risk assessment
feature provides simplified color reporting for physician and
patient Presents standard BMD (sBMD), using NHANES III data
a new standard for total spine and
total hip bone densitometry Technical Specifications
