CHAPTER 8

Patient SOS Measurement

statistically meaningful conclusions from an SOS result, 
the conditions of the measurement should be as close as 
possible to those used in building the baseline data. 
Therefore, 

the exact procedure given in this Guide must 

be followed for each site

.

Overall, the method of measurement with Omnisense is similar 
regardless of the site being measured, although there are some 
important points that vary from site to site. In this chapter the 
correct method for measuring the distal 1/3 radius is presented 
in detail. A careful reading of the two procedures which follow 
will ensure that you are familiar with the key points of correct 
measurement and will minimize inaccuracies in your results. 
When measuring at other skeletal sites, remember to check 
carefully for variations in the method. See Chapter 15, "Site 
Measurement Methodologies‚" page 15-1.

Positioning the limb and finding the site

S

TEP

 1 Position the patient and the limb

SOS measurement at the distal 1/3 radius has been 
defined by Sunlight clinical research at a precise 
point on the limb which facilitates the easiest and 
most reproducible measurement. This point is half-
way between the elbow and the end of the middle 
finger. However, to insure compatibility with the 
reference database, it is important to locate the site 
precisely.

Always measure the patient’s non-dominant side. In case 
of a disorder or impairment in the non-dominant limb, 
such as edema, a mass, undetachable ring or IV line, use 
the contra-lateral side instead.

Seat the patient in a chair, opposite the operator and 
close to a standard desk.
