DEXA Scan

Medix Series Advanced DEXA Systems

High-throughput centres demanding 15-s site scans, premium image quality and wide clinical versatility


Precision DXA solutions for osteoporosis assessment, 3-D bone mapping & body-composition analysis. Apelem, the bone-densitometry division of DMS Imaging, offers two complementary DXA families—Stratos Series and the Medix Series. All systems are designed and manufactured in France, share the same intuitive software, and connect seamlessly to PACS/RIS via DICOM.

Medix Series Highlights
  • Medix 90: Private clinics, mobile units and satellite hospitals seeking maximum value per square metre.
  • Medix DR: 2-D fan-beam - Hospitals that need high-speed exams, CT-class image quality and multi-user DICOM networking.
  • Low patient table height: for easy access; optional compact version for paediatric or space-restricted sites.
  • Auto-calibration before every shift: ensures scan-to-scan reproducibility over the system's lifetime.
  • Rapid energy mode change: allows same-session paediatric and adult exams without rebooting.
  • Connectivity out of the box: DICOM Worklist, Storage, Media Import/Export and HL7 demographic interface.
3D-DXA – Advanced Structural Analysis (Software Module)
  • Transforms routine hip BMD scans: into fully reconstructed 3-D femoral models.
  • Separate cortical and trabecular measurements: for early detection of micro-architectural changes.
  • Colour-coded fragility maps: pinpoint regions of lowest bone strength to guide drug or surgical decisions.
  • Adds < 30 seconds: to the analysis workflow; no extra radiation, hardware or technician training required.
Common Software Strengths
  • Single, intuitive user interface: across all models; minimal learning curve.
  • Multi-workstation licensing: review, edit and report from any networked PC.
  • Automated one-page reports: with clear traffic-light graphics, FRAX results and comparison to previous visits.
Why Choose Apelem | DMS Imaging DXA?
  • European engineering & manufacturing: for proven reliability and precise dosimetry.
  • One software ecosystem: across all models—scale services without re-training staff.
  • Comprehensive clinical applications: from osteoporosis and fracture-risk prediction to paediatric bone health, body composition and elite-sport monitoring.
  • Future-ready upgrades: add 3D-DXA, vertebral fracture assessment or advanced body-composition analytics via software licence, not hardware swap.

DMS Imaging's Stratos and Medix families, complemented by 3D-DXA technology, provide a complete, scalable pathway for bone densitometry and body-composition assessment—helping clinicians deliver precise, actionable insights for every patient, at every stage of care.
