HP-B04 Ultrasonic Bone Density Scanner
Price, lead time and documents for your market are confirmed in the quotation.
Key takeaways
- HP-B04 is an ultrasonic bone density scanner for fast, radiation-free bone screening.
- The heel (calcaneus) is the most common peripheral ultrasound screening site; confirm the HP-B04 measurement site on its specification sheet.
- Screening results guide referral to DXA; they do not replace a diagnostic scan.
The HP-B04 is an ultrasonic bone density scanner for osteoporosis screening. Like the other ultrasonic models in the HOPE INTERNATIONAL range, it works without ionizing radiation, so it can be placed in an ordinary consulting room or taken to a screening event. It is one of four ultrasonic densitometer models in the range, and its specification sheet can be compared side by side with HP-B01 and HP-B02.
Key Features
- Ultrasonic scanning: no X-ray exposure and no shielding.
- Suited to short screening appointments.
- Measurement site, parameters and report output confirmed on the specification sheet.
- Quoted with the accessories and documents your market requires.
Applications
Community screening days, health-check centers, menopause and women's health clinics, orthopedic and fracture-liaison services, and nursing-home health programs. Screening with ultrasound first means only people with low results need a DXA appointment, and it fits programs for older adults where fracture risk matters.
How to specify when requesting a quote

Frequently asked questions
+What is a heel bone density screening?
It is a quick ultrasound measurement at the heel bone (calcaneus), a site rich in trabecular bone. It estimates fracture risk without radiation and helps decide who needs a DXA scan. We confirm the measurement site of HP-B04 with the quotation.
+How do you read heel bone density test results?
Most devices report a T-score compared with young adults and a Z-score compared with people of the same age and sex. Lower scores mean lower bone quality. Because ultrasound is a screening test, low results should be followed by DXA and clinical assessment.
+What does a bone density scanner cost?
Price depends on model, accessories and quantity. HP-B04 is quoted as an itemized configuration; ask for the specification sheets of HP-B01, HP-B02 and HP-B04 together to compare.
