All Discovery DXA systems are powered by our exclusive OnePass technology. OnePass single sweep scanning delivers superb image quality¹ and precision². Our exclusive design utilizes a multi-element digital detector array paired with true fan-beam acquisition geometry, enabling rapid, dual-energy bone density measurements. OnePass scanning is designed to eliminate beam overlap errors and image distortion found in rectilinear acquisition techniques resulting in superb image quality and data stability.
