HP-B09 DEXA Machine: Dual-Energy X-Ray Bone Densitometer
Price, lead time and documents for your market are confirmed in the quotation.
Key takeaways
- HP-B09 is a dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA/DXA) bone densitometer; DXA is the most widely used X-ray method for measuring bone mineral density.
- As X-ray equipment, it needs a suitable room and, in most countries, radiation licensing and registration before use.
- Scan sites, scan time, dose and software are confirmed on the HP-B09 specification sheet supplied with the quote.
The HP-B09 is a DEXA machine, a dual-energy X-ray bone densitometer for hospitals, imaging centers and specialist clinics that measure and monitor bone mineral density. DXA passes two X-ray energies through the body and uses the difference in absorption to calculate bone mineral density. HOPE INTERNATIONAL supplies HP-B09 alongside its ultrasonic screening models, so buyers can pair ultrasound screening with X-ray densitometry.
Key Features
- Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry for bone mineral density measurement.
- Complements ultrasound screening: low QUS results can be referred for a DXA scan.
- Scan sites, detector, scan time and software stated on the model specification sheet.
- Site preparation and licensing questions discussed before you order.
Applications
Bone mineral density testing and follow-up in radiology departments, endocrinology, rheumatology and orthopedic services, women's health centers and private imaging centers. Many screening networks pair one DXA system with several ultrasonic units placed in outlying clinics.

Documents
Certificates, declarations of conformity and test reports for the specific model and destination market are provided with the quotation.
Before you order, ask for the model's specification sheet and operator's manual for review. A commercial invoice and packing list are issued with every export shipment; other documents your importer or regulator requires can be requested with the quote.
HP-B09 is X-ray equipment. Most countries require device registration, a facility radiation license and a room shielding assessment before installation. Please confirm your local requirements before ordering.
Frequently asked questions
+How does a DEXA scan measure bone density?
The machine sends two X-ray beams at different energies through the scan area. Bone and soft tissue absorb them differently, so the software can subtract soft tissue, calculate bone mineral density in grams per square centimeter and compare it with reference data as T- and Z-scores.
+Is DEXA the same as DXA?
Yes. DEXA and DXA both stand for dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. DXA is the abbreviation preferred in clinical guidelines, while DEXA is common in general use.
+How much does a DEXA machine cost?
A DXA system typically costs more than an ultrasonic densitometer, and the final price depends on configuration, software, installation and destination. We quote HP-B09 as an itemized configuration.
+What do I need before installing a DEXA machine?
Check your country's rules for X-ray equipment: device registration, facility radiation license, room layout and shielding assessment, and a trained operator. Certificates, declarations of conformity and test reports for the specific model and destination market are provided with the quotation.
