EOS imaging announced it has received FDA 510(K) clearance for new software dedicated to sagittal balance and posture analysis.

The software, sterEOS 1.6, provides 3-D modeling of the spine and lower limbs based on scans taken by an EOS system, according to a company press release. The scans automatically calculate 100 clinical parameters relevant to diagnosis and surgical planning.

SterEOS 1.6 will allow for faster analysis of a patient’s skeletal balance and will help the surgeon maintain or restore that balance, according to the release.

The new system provides full-body images of patients in a standing or seated position, with both 2-D and 3-D options. The system will also provide less radiation exposure than typical digital radiology or a basic CT scan, according to the release.
