Schick reported that sales of its accuDEXA bone densitometer are going well. In addition, the Long Island City, NY, company reported that it received 510(k) clearance from the Food and Drug Administration for an additional application for accuDEXA: use of the system to help physicians determine the risk of fracture. AccuDEXA received its initial 510(k) market clearance in December for assessing bone mineral density (SCAN 4/15/98).
