The GE Lunar enCORE software used on the GE Lunar bone densitometer total body scan estimates the Relative Skeletal Muscle Index (RSMI) in the male or female population age 18 and older. The data can be displayed in user-defined statistical formats and trends.

The Mirrorlmage fuinction in the enCORE software used on the GE Lunar DXA bone densitometers can be used to estimate the total body composition and bone mineral density (BMLD) when regions of the body are outside of the scan window by using scanned data from the corresponding region(s) on the opposite half of the body.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
