Prodigy Primo
Dual-energy X-ray bone densitometer

The Prodigy® Primo is the latest direct–digital narrow–angle fan

beam densitometer in the Prodigy series. This sophisticated
technology provides precise results in all skeletal sites.
Additionally, the Prodigy Primo provides precise body composition
results, such as fat mass and lean mass, at any part of the human
body.1 Full- and compact-sized scanner beds are available.
