DXA scanner maximises contact with patient
Vertec product specialist Bill Reid with radiographer specialists Pippa Weston and Georgina Hollick.
Hertford County Hospital’s bone mineral density service has received a Horizon W DXA scanner supplied by Vertec Scientific. In a typical week around 95 patients will be scanned.
Radiographer specialist Pippa Weston said: “Patients find the Horizon more friendly than previous systems as a lower dose means a lead glass screen is not needed, which maximises contact between the patient and radiographer.”
