What is it indicated for?

VirtuOst uses data from computed tomography scans to estimate bone mineral density,

bone strength, and a load-to-strength ratio. This information can be used by a

physician to assess fracture risk, identify ostebporosis, and monitor therapy. For

pediatric patients, VirtuOst provides these estimates without any classifications and

should be used only when the benefit of obtaining these estimates outweighs the risk

of radiation.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
