“Omnisense 7000: The Sunlight Omnisense Ultrasound Bone Sonometer is a non-invasive ultrasound device capable of measuring bone speed of sound (SOS) at one or more skeletal sites. It is comprised of a Main Unit and small hand held probes, each designed to measure SOS at one or more specific skeletal sites. The basic system is offered with one probe, capable of measuring SOS of the distal one-third radius and the mid-shaft tibia. Reference databases are provided for measurements at each of the skeletal sites. Omnisense measures SOS utilizing a technology based on well established laws of physics applied to the transmission of signals along the bone. The measurements are performed while the subject and the operator are comfortably seated. Results are expressed in meters per second (m/sec), reflecting the upper 95th percentile of the sorted SOS values. Omnisense reports the bone SOS, together with the T-score (units of standard deviations relative to population reference values of healthy young adults), Z-score values (units of standard deviations relative to age and gender matched population reference values), and patient risk assessment, computed using the patient’s SOS value and a reference database. For any two measured skeletal sites, Omnisense may report the Osteoporosis, Risk Index (ORI™), which combines the individual results into a single clinical index. No calibration is required. Daily system verification is accomplished using the System Quality Verification (SQV) phantom supplied with the device. Probes: Omnisense is a multiple skeletal sites. The probes designed to support measurement at the following areas: • CM probe – used for bone strength assessment at the radius and tibia • CS probe – used for bone strength assessment at the phalanx • CR probe – used for bone strength assessment at the metatarsal The probes can be supplied with Omnisense 7000 and/or Omnisense 8000.
