Ultrasound Bone Healing System



About EXOGEN

The EXOGEN system uses ultrasound to heal broken bones faster

The EXOGEN◊ Ultrasound Bone Healing System is an ultrasound device that you apply over the fracture site and is safe to use 20 minutes a day. The system emits a low-intensity, pulsed ultrasound signal. The ultrasound waves have been shown in laboratory tests to stimulate genes and growth factors that are critical to your body’s natural bone healing process.

 

It is FDA-approved to treat fractures that have not healed (non-unions) as well as appropriate fresh (recent) fractures. The EXOGEN Ultrasound Bone Healing System is the only bone healing device approved to accelerate fracture healing.

 

EXOGEN is an effective, convenient treatment which may get back to your normal activities faster:

 

  • Heals appropriate1 indicated fresh fractures 38% faster2
  • Heals 86% of non-unions3
  • Is effective in just 20 minutes a day
  • Is the only bone stimulation device to use ultrasound

1 Appropriate fractures are the distal radius (arm/wrist) or tibia (leg/shinbone).
