About Eos Imaging

EOS imaging, now a part of the ATEC Spine Group, is a global medical device company specializing in innovative, low-dose 2D/3D imaging and software solutions primarily for musculoskeletal pathologies and orthopedic surgical care. Their flagship technology, the EOS system (including EOSedge), utilizes Nobel Prize-winning detector design to capture high-quality, full-body, weight-bearing frontal and lateral images with significantly reduced radiation exposure compared to traditional X-rays or CT scans. This is particularly beneficial for pediatric patients and those requiring frequent imaging, allowing for more informed diagnoses and personalized treatment plans.

The company’s Advanced Orthopedic Solutions (AOS) extend beyond imaging to encompass sophisticated 3D anatomical modeling and surgical planning tools. These solutions enable physicians to accurately assess conditions like scoliosis, kyphosis, limb length discrepancies, and hip dysplasia, and to precisely plan and simulate orthopedic procedures such as spine surgeries and total hip or knee arthroplasties. By integrating imaging data with surgical planning and post-operative assessment capabilities, EOS imaging aims to bridge the entire spectrum of care, supporting clinical efficiency and improving patient outcomes.

The technology provides true-to-size 2D and 3D images, allowing for precise measurements of bones, joints, and alignment, which is crucial for complex orthopedic conditions. The ability to image patients in a natural, weight-bearing position offers a functional view of the musculoskeletal system, aiding in a comprehensive understanding of a patient’s biomechanics.

What Physicians Need to Know

Orthopedic Medical Imaging

Provides accurate, full-body, weight-bearing 2D/3D images for comprehensive assessment at all stages of care, from diagnosis to post-operative evaluation.

Low-Dose 2D/3D Imaging

Utilizes a bi-planar X-ray system with a Nobel Prize-winning detector design, offering significantly reduced radiation exposure (50-85% less than traditional X-rays, up to 95% less than CT scans). Features like Micro Dose and Flex Doseu2122 further minimize radiation, especially crucial for pediatric patients and those requiring frequent imaging.

3D Surgical Planning

Generates patient-specific 3D models of the spine, pelvis, and lower limbs. Offers online planning tools (EOSapps like spineEOS and hipEOS) to precisely define surgical targets, optimize implant selection and positioning, simulate post-operative results, and assess sagittal balance.

Musculoskeletal Disorders

Enables comprehensive assessment of the entire musculoskeletal system in a functional, weight-bearing position, aiding in the diagnosis and monitoring of various conditions.

Scoliosis Management

Supports accurate diagnosis, precise monitoring of curve progression, and comprehensive surgical planning for pediatric and adult scoliosis, offering a 3D understanding of complex spinal deformities. The Micro Dose feature is particularly beneficial for children.

Limb Length Discrepancy

Provides highly accurate measurements of limb lengths and alignment in a weight-bearing position, often serving as a reliable alternative to CT scanograms for this assessment.

Posture and Balance Analysis

Captures the spine and skeletal system in a natural, weight-bearing position, offering a global view of spinal balance and alignment crucial for understanding compensatory mechanisms and functional impact.

Hip, Knee, and Spine Conditions

Offers specialized imaging and planning for degenerative spinal conditions, deformities, hip replacement (including hip/spine relationship and implant positioning), lower limb alignment, and conditions like hip dysplasia, bowleg/knock knee, and osteoarthritis.

Physician Tip

Eos Imaging systems provide a unique advantage by capturing musculoskeletal anatomy in a functional, weight-bearing position, which is critical for understanding true biomechanics and compensatory mechanisms often missed by supine imaging. The significantly reduced radiation dose, especially with Micro Dose and Flex Dose technologies, makes it an ideal choice for pediatric patients and those requiring serial imaging, aligning with ALARA principles. Physicians can leverage the precise 3D models and advanced surgical planning software (spineEOS, hipEOS) to enhance diagnostic accuracy, optimize surgical strategies, and improve patient communication regarding treatment expectations and outcomes. The comprehensive full-body assessment aids in a holistic understanding of complex conditions, leading to more informed clinical decisions and potentially more predictable surgical results. The fast scan times also contribute to improved clinic workflow and patient comfort.

Eos Imaging offers a suite of Advanced Orthopedic Solutions (AOS) that includes 3D modeling and 3D surgical planning tools (EOSapps like hipEOS and spineEOS). These solutions are designed to seamlessly integrate into surgical workflows, allowing for the transfer of patient-specific surgical planning targets directly into the operating room. The platform supports tracking patient outcomes using accurate image-based data and is recognized across the orthopedic community. The spineEOS planning tool, for instance, is an open platform, not specific to any implant vendor, offering flexibility for surgeons.

Complementing this, their Advanced Orthopedic Solutions (AOS) include the sterEOS workstation for 3D modeling and interactive measurements, along with EOSapps (e.g., hipEOS, spineEOS) for advanced 3D surgical planning and OR integration.

How does Eos Imaging's technology benefit patients with musculoskeletal disorders like scoliosis, limb length discrepancy, and hip/knee/spine concerns?

Eos Imaging provides accurate, low-dose, weight-bearing 2D/3D images that are invaluable for evaluating conditions such as scoliosis, kyphosis, limb length discrepancy, hip dysplasia, and various hip, knee, and spine concerns. This technology allows for precise anatomical assessment, including true-size measurements and functional patient positioning, which aids in diagnosis, surgical planning, and monitoring disease progression, especially for pediatric patients requiring frequent imaging.

What are the key advantages of Eos Imaging's low-dose 2D/3D imaging compared to traditional X-rays or CT scans?

The EOS system utilizes significantly less radiation than conventional X-rays (50-85% less) and CT scans (up to 95% less or 20 times less), making it particularly beneficial for patients needing repeated exams. It captures simultaneous frontal and lateral full-body images in a weight-bearing position, providing true-size, undistorted 2D and 3D anatomical models that are not possible with standard 2D imaging.

How does Eos Imaging support 3D surgical planning and post-operative assessment for orthopedic procedures?

Eos Imaging's Advanced Orthopedic Solutions (AOS) enable physicians to create patient-specific 3D models of the spine, pelvis, and lower limbs from biplanar images. These models facilitate precise 3D surgical planning, allowing surgeons to define surgical targets, optimize implant selection and position, and track patient outcomes using accurate image-based data. The system also supports OR integration for seamless transfer of planning targets into the operating room.

What is the current company status and stability of Eos Imaging, including its partnerships?

Eos Imaging was acquired by Alphatec Holdings (ATEC) in an all-cash transaction for approximately $116.9 million, with the acquisition closing in Q2 2021. It now operates as part of the ATEC Spine Group, leveraging its innovative imaging and software solutions to complement ATEC's spinal implant offerings. Eos Imaging has a global presence with over 500 systems installed in more than 40 countries.

What are Eos Imaging's compliance standards and regulatory clearances for its medical imaging systems?

Eos Imaging adheres to high compliance and ethical standards, including ISO 9001 (quality management), ISO 14001 (environmental management), and ISO 27001 (information security management) certifications. Their EOSedge system is designed and certified to conform to IEC 60601-1 standards, and the sterEOS workstation is FDA cleared.

How is the pricing structured for Eos Imaging's services, particularly for 2D and 3D imaging?

For 2D EOS X-rays, the cost is generally comparable to traditional X-rays and is billed in a similar manner. However, 3D EOS images typically incur an additional cost to the original 2D scan, with insurance coverage for the 3D portion varying by provider. Some clinics may offer specific package pricing for EOS scans and reports.
