What is it indicated for?

The bone density estimates from the SXA 3000™ can be used as an aid to physicians

in determining fracture risk, based on their comparison to estimates for people

without bone related disease, who have the same gender and ethnic background as the

patient.

Indications for use read by OCR from a scanned FDA summary, so letters may be misread. Check the PDF before quoting it.
