The Osteoprobe

The Osteoprobe is a handheld device that assesses bone quality and strength using micro-indentation technology. During the measurement, a small probe is pressed against the bone surface with controlled force. The device measures the resistance of the bone tissue to indentation, providing information about bone stiffness, indentation depth, and material properties. Osteoprobe measurements offer direct assessments of bone strength and resilience. The procedure is quick, non-invasive, and can be performed at the point of care, making it suitable for clinical use in assessing bone health.
