Bradford Royal Infirmary, Bradford. 

Chosen for it’s ability to provide Supine Lateral Scanning, the Discovery SL at Bradford Royal Infirmary was given the Royal seal of approval by HRH Princess Anne, The Princess Royal, when she formally opened a new DEXA suite. The system was installed last year and has seen more than 3,200 patients from the North Yorkshire area.

Previously, Bradford had a Lunar DPX for many years. Vertec were able to import the old database and cross calibrate the system to ensure continuity of service, despite changing system types.
