TBS iNsight is a software application provided for use as a complement to bone mineral density (BMD) acquired from dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and other clinical risk factors for osteoporosis and fragility fracture. It calculates a score (Trabecular Bone Score - TBS) derived from the texture of the DXA image of the anterior-posterior (AP) lumbar spine and has been shown to be related to bone microarchitecture. The method analyzes X-ray based images acquired by DXA imaging systems and produces the TBS based on the computation of an Adapted Experimental Variogram (modified fractal-like approach). This variogram is used to measure the degree of spatial variation between pairs of data points in a spatial dimension of a region of a digital image.
A software program intended to display, analyse/process, and possibly acquire static two-dimensional (2-D) x-ray images of bones and/or the abdominothoracic region, acquired by a basic diagnostic x-ray system, to support a healthcare provider with clinical assessment (e.g., diagnosis, triage, image quality assessment) of a trauma or condition (typically orthopaedic, cardiac or pulmonary). It is not dedicated to treatment planning and does not incorporate adaptive/dynamic machine learning (ML) models.
