Frequently Asked Questions
How does quantitative ultrasound compare to DXA for bone density measurement?
Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) and DXA measure different aspects of bone health. DXA remains the gold standard for osteoporosis diagnosis, measuring bone mineral density at central sites (spine and hip). QUS measures bone quality parameters like speed of sound at peripheral sites (radius/tibia) and provides fracture risk assessment. QUS offers advantages including no radiation, lower cost, portability, and suitability for screening. Patients with abnormal QUS results can be referred for confirmatory DXA scanning.
Can I use this device to diagnose osteoporosis?
The NEUBD09 is intended for osteoporosis screening and fracture risk assessment rather than definitive diagnosis. While T-scores are provided for clinical interpretation, WHO diagnostic criteria for osteoporosis are based on DXA measurements of spine or hip. The device identifies patients at risk who should be referred for DXA confirmation and those who may benefit from preventive interventions. It’s excellent for screening large populations and monitoring treatment response.
Why measure at radius or tibia instead of spine or hip?
Peripheral sites (radius and tibia) are more accessible and easier to measure with ultrasound technology. These weight-bearing bones correlate with overall skeletal health and fracture risk. The measurement is quick, comfortable for patients, and doesn’t require special positioning. While central sites (spine/hip) are preferred for diagnostic purposes, peripheral measurements provide valuable screening information and predict fracture risk. Radius and tibia measurements are particularly useful when central site scanning is not available or practical.
Is any special training required to operate the device?
Basic operator training can be completed in 1-2 hours. The Windows-based interface is intuitive, and probe positioning is straightforward. We provide comprehensive training during installation covering patient positioning, probe placement, quality control, result interpretation, and system maintenance. Medical assistants, nurses, or technicians can easily learn to perform scans. While operation is simple, result interpretation should be performed by qualified healthcare providers familiar with bone density assessment.
How often should patients be screened?
Screening frequency depends on individual risk factors and initial results. Generally, postmenopausal women and elderly individuals may benefit from screening every 1-2 years. Patients on osteoporosis treatment should be monitored according to treatment protocols, often annually. Because ultrasound is radiation-free, more frequent monitoring is possible when clinically indicated. Your clinical judgment and established guidelines (USPSTF, NOF) should guide screening intervals for your patient population.
Can results be exported or integrated with EMR systems?
The Windows-based system allows report generation and data export. Results can be printed for patient records or saved as digital files for EMR integration. Standard connectivity options facilitate data transfer to electronic medical record systems. Contact us to discuss your specific EMR requirements and integration capabilities. We can provide technical specifications for IT departments to assess compatibility with your existing systems.
What maintenance does the device require?
The NEUBD09 requires minimal routine maintenance. Daily tasks include system calibration checks and probe cleaning. Periodic quality control measurements with phantoms ensure measurement accuracy. The ultrasound probe should be handled carefully and protected from damage. No consumables are required for routine operation. Annual preventive maintenance by a service technician is recommended to verify system performance and calibration. The Windows computer requires standard antivirus and software updates.
What warranty and support is provided?
The NEUBD09 includes a 2-year manufacturer warranty covering parts and labor. Neuvar provides 24/7 technical support at +1 424 270 9077 and sales@neuvar.com for troubleshooting and questions. We maintain parts inventory for rapid service response and can arrange extended warranty programs. Remote technical support via phone or screen sharing resolves most issues quickly.
