What is an EOS Scan used for?

Accurate Weight-Bearing Imaging:

EOS technology allows medical referrers to take highly precise 3D images of a patient’s spine and lower limbs while they stand naturally. This special view provides detailed pictures of bones and muscles.

Comprehensive Assessment of Musculoskeletal Disorders:

EOS scans are the main tool for checking many bone and muscle problems, like spine curves (scoliosis), hip issues, and leg irregularities. Medical referrers also use it to follow how these problems change over time and make plans for treatment.

Advanced Diagnosis and Treatment of Lower Limb Deformities:

EOS technology is really good at taking detailed pictures, which helps medical referrers find and treat issues in the hip, knee, and other parts of the lower limbs. These images show how the bones and muscles are positioned when you’re standing up, making it easier to understand and manage these conditions.

Full-Body 3D Scanning and Precision Diagnosis:

EOS technology takes pictures from the front and side at the same time, creating accurate 3D models with exact measurements. This helps medical referrers make well-informed decisions about your health.

Low-Radiation Scanning Tailored for Paediatric Patients:

EOS scans are safe for children, even if they need many scans over time. The technology uses low- dose radiation to keep kids safe. Innovations like “EOS micro-dose” make it even safer by reducing radiation exposure during scans.
