The Achilles EXPII device is the bone ultrasonometer that produces high frequency ultrasound waves to evaluate the bone status in the heel and the os calcis. The Achilles EXPII measure the speed of sound and the frequency dependent attenuation of the sound waves are combined them to form clinical measurements. These clinical measures are also called the stiffness index. The stiffness index indicates risk of osteoporotic fracture in postmenopausal women compared to bone mineral density (BMD) as measured by X-ray absorptiometry at the spine or hip. The stiffness index results expressed as t-scores that are used to diagnosis the osteoporosis
