OXOS Medical and OsteoApp.ai Combine to Diagnose Osteoporosis at the Point of Care

Posted on 29 April 2021

Dr. Gregory Kolovich, inventor of Micro C, takes x-rays of a patient at the point of care.

OsteoApp.ai can determine bone density using standard x-rays of the hand and forearm.

Diagnosis with Micro C

By bringing diagnostics to the bedside, OXOS Medical and OsteoApp.ai can improve detection, awareness, and access for all at-risk adults.

With OsteoApp.ai in the hands of every clinician using the Micro C, OXOS and OsteoApp.ai can transform the way Osteopenia and Osteoporosis are diagnosed and treated.”

— Peter T. Bianco

ATLANTA, GA, USA, April 29, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ — OsteoApp.ai and OXOS Medical will collaborate on distributing OsteoApp.ai’s proprietary Artificial Intelligence tools to the point of care throughout all facilities using the Micro C. This novel solution will revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of osteoporosis.

One in two women and up to one in four men will break a bone in their lifetime due to osteoporosis. For women, the incidence is greater than that of heart attack, stroke, and breast cancer combined. The costs of related morbidities are estimated to reach nearly $25B by 2025 in the US.

OsteoApp.ai provides a unique fracture risk assessment tool that allows for vastly greater identification of at-risk populations. The ease of diagnosis will lead to early interventions, including increased awareness, lifestyle changes, increased access to appropriate pharmaceuticals, and overall healthcare system and payor savings.

OXOS Medical is the designer and manufacturer of Micro C. Micro C brings radiologic diagnosis to the point of care with a handheld x-ray that operates safely without a radiation suite. OXOS’s unique distribution platform can seamlessly deliver imaging algorithms at scale.

“OXOS Medical is pleased to be entering into this relationship as both companies gain market momentum,” said OXOS CEO Evan Ruff. “OXOS Platform’s connected capabilities allow delivery of OsteoApp.ai to the point of care across the entire Micro C deployment spectrum. This distribution capability will allow OsteoApp.ai to accelerate their mission of combating the pandemic of fragility fractures resulting from osteoporosis and osteopenia.”

OsteoApp.ai CEO Peter T. Bianco said, “We are extremely pleased to be entering into this transformative agreement with OXOS Medical. Our technology has a distinguished clinical history in Europe, and we are excited to accelerate our US market entry for our osteoporosis detection software through this innovative partnership.”
