DPX-IQ Operator’s Manual Total Body D-7
D.3 Analysis Information
During a total body analysis, refer to the information that follows to help you
complete the analysis procedure.
D.3.1 Position Cuts
Position the cuts to get results for anatomical areas. If only total body results are
necessary, you do not have to position cuts.
Position the cuts at the Auto Analysis screen: select
"$
at the Bone Results screen.
Use the page up and page down keys to highlight a cut, then use the arrow keys to
move the cut. Select
#
for precise cut position.
NOTE: It is necessary to position cuts as precise as possible for the
Extended Research Analysis option.
The Auto Analysis screen shows the anatomical cut regions. The correct position for
each cut follows (figure D-7):
➊
Center—Position the center cut in the center of the body image.
➋
Neck—Position the neck cut immediately below the chin.
➌
Ribs—There is a left and right rib cut shown on the scan image. Position each
cut as close to the spine as possible. Do not include the spine in the rib region.
➍
Arms—There is a left and right arm cut shown on the scan image. Position each
arm cut so it passes through the center of the arm socket and as close to the body
as possible. Do not include the hands inside the arm cut regions. Do not include
the pelvis or femur outside the arm cut regions.
➎
Pelvis—Position the pelvis cut immediately above the pelvis and make sure the
lines on both sides of the cut pass through the femoral necks. Make sure the top
line of the pelvis cut DOES NOT touch the pelvis.
➏
Pelvis Tip—Position the pelvis tip cut below the pelvis and make sure the lines
on both sides of the pelvis cut pass through the femoral necks.
➐
Lumbar—Position the lumbar cut to contain the last vertebra above the pelvis.
Make sure the spine is not included in the pelvis cut region.
➑
Dorsal—Position the dorsal cut immediately below T12 (to identify T12, locate
the ribs that extend from it).
