efficiency.
You care, we deliver….
Lowest Dose
Lowest possible dose to patients
and operators with all studies; for
example, patient dose of only 3μSv
with AP Spine studies.
Ultimate Accuracy
Validating bone, lean and fat assessment against chemical standards
to provide unique cross-modality
comparison.
Ultimate Precision
With dynamic filtration accommodating for tissue thickness and
minimal operator intervention
achieved with Norland’s positioning
aids, variability can be minimized to
within 1%.
Longest Product Useful Life
A random spot survey of 1,320
Norland scanners in the USA
showed 90% of the scanners still
functional after 10 years of service.
