Osseus is a portable, easy-to-use, and low-cost device designed to make bone densitometry more accessible across Brazil. Unlike traditional methods, the Osseus performs non-invasive exams with no side effects, allowing for more frequent applications and improving patient outcomes. The device was validated by researchers from LAIS in partnership with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) in Cambridge, MA, USA.
Bone densitometry is critical for early diagnosis, enabling timely treatment and preventing fractures. However, it remains a costly and often inaccessible procedure, typically limited to specialized or high-complexity facilities. Osseus addresses this gap, offering a scalable solution that democratizes access to bone health diagnostics, ensuring it reaches underserved populations throughout Brazil.
In this project, I was responsible for developing a synchronization application that efficiently reads all exam data from the device’s database and transfers it to a web application. This solution ensured seamless integration between the device and the web platform, enabling real-time data access and enhancing overall system functionality.
