HP-B01+ Quantitative Ultrasound Bone Densitometer (QUS)
Price, lead time and documents for your market are confirmed in the quotation.
Key takeaways
- HP-B01+ is the plus version of the HP-B01 ultrasonic bone densitometer and uses quantitative ultrasound (QUS), with no ionizing radiation.
- The upgrade points over HP-B01 are listed on the two specification sheets; request both to compare before ordering.
- QUS supports screening and follow-up, while DXA remains the diagnostic reference for osteoporosis.
The HP-B01+ is a quantitative ultrasound bone densitometer, the plus version of the HOPE INTERNATIONAL HP-B01. Quantitative ultrasound (QUS) assesses bone by measuring how ultrasound passes through it, typically as speed of sound and broadband attenuation, without X-rays. It is used where fast, radiation-free screening matters more than a full diagnostic scan.
Key Features
- QUS measurement with no ionizing radiation.
- Plus version of HP-B01; the differences are shown side by side on the two specification sheets.
- Measured parameters, measurement site and report format confirmed before you order.
- Suitable for screening desks and outreach events.
Applications
Bone health screening in check-up centers, community hospitals, women's health and menopause clinics, orthopedic and rehabilitation departments, and elderly-care screening programs. Choose HP-B01+ over HP-B01 when the listed upgrades match your screening workflow; otherwise the base model may be enough.

Frequently asked questions
+What is quantitative ultrasound (QUS)?
QUS is a bone assessment method that measures how ultrasound travels through bone, usually as speed of sound (SOS) and broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA). Devices convert these values into an index and into T- or Z-scores against a reference population.
+Can you measure bone density with ultrasound?
Ultrasound estimates bone status rather than measuring bone mineral density directly as DXA does. It is widely used for screening because it is quick, portable and radiation-free, and people with low results are referred for DXA.
+What is the difference between HP-B01 and HP-B01+?
HP-B01+ is the upgraded version of HP-B01. The specific additions are listed on the two specification sheets, which we send together with the quotation so you can choose the version you need.
