Galileo Delta tilt table
Muscle therapy for patients who are unable to stand without support
System for application in adults (model A) and children (model C)

The Galileo Delta series enables users unable to stand to benefit from the therapy success with Galileo. The primary therapy targets are the improvement of the muscular status of the legs and trunk, the alleviation of contractures and the stimulation of blood circulation. The motor driven adjustable tilt angle of the Galileo Delta TiltTable (90°) allows vibration therapy with reduced body weight from 0 to 100%. The scope of delivery includes a remote control to control the base unit, for stepless adjustment of the TiltTable and to control the Wobbel mode. The model Delta A TiltTable with a lying length of 1.90 m offers the ideal conditions for adults.

The Galileo Delta A TiltTable offers a wide variety of applications from relaxation to intense muscle exercises for a diverse range of patients who are unable to stand without support. The motor driven adjustable tilt angle of the Galileo Delta TiltTable (90°) allows vibration therapy with reduced body weight from 0 to 100%. This is well suited for deconditioned and disabled patients for gradually increasing weights up to full body weight.

Product category: Training equipment
Galileo Mano 30 dumbell
Therapy for arms and upper part of the body
The Galileo Mano Med dumbbell systems are particularly used to reduce spasticity or used to alleviate movement restrictions and circulatory disorders and improve motor function or invigorate the muscles.

The effective addition to the standing device.

The Galileo Mano Med 30 dumbbell system enables relaxing and demanding therapy sessions as the situation requires. Muscular deficiencies of the upper extremities and the area of the shoulder and neck are quickly and effectively treated so that the freedom of movement for example after an injury to the shoulder is restored after a very short time. The switching on of the integrated Wobbel function enables a random changing stimulation frequency (vibrations per second).
As an option, a second dumbbell can also be used.

Product category: Training equipment
Galileo Med 15
Therapy for Kids.
Light and mobile for our youngest with optional Galileo Mano controll.

Galileo Med 15 is otimized for new-born and small children, for children with a body mass up to 50kg. Galileo Med 15 is very light and therefore extremely mobile.
The integrated Control for a Galileo Mano dumbbell as well as the integrated Galileo Wobbel Mode add extra functionality and allow extra possibilities.

Stratec XCT 2000
Peripheral quantitative computed tomograph (pQCT) for the measurement at radius or tibia. Evaluation of volumetric bone density, bone geometry and muscle parameter at the forarm or lower leg using pQCT.

pQCT – the third dimension in bone densitometry.
With conventional area-projected bone densitometry techniques bone strength cannot be determined adequately because they are lacking information about bone geometry.

With the pQCT technology bone strength with respect to bending, torsion, and compression can be calculated from bone’s cross sectional geometry. In addition the results are given as physically correct density units in g/cm³, whereas area projected techniques give only g/cm². Therefore the density values from the pQCT are independent from bone size. This is especially important for measurements on children. With the pQCT technology cortical and trabecular bone can be analysed separately and bone changes can be diagnosed reliably.

Additional morphometric parameter like endosteal and periosteal perimeter and bone cross sectional area are accessible in vivo. pQCT measurements at tibia or radius are performed in a wide range in clinical routine. In paediatrics the advantages of pQCT are especially distinct. It is the only method that allows to differentiate bone growth from other processes. In preclinical research specialised ultra high resolution scanner rare used in many pharmacological studies.

Relation between muscular demands and the resulting bone
But pQCT is even one step further than traditional methods: In addition to bone parameters it also quantifies muscle properties. This allows to quantify the relation between muscle and bone which is essential for the step from Osteoporosis diagnostics to diagnostics of Sarcopenia, Dynapenia and Frailty.

Essential for bone geometry and bone mass is the muscular demand on the bone. Julius Wolf postulated “bone geometry follows function” and Harold Frost specified the more detailed “Mechanostat” theorem. Therefore bone diagnostics must always be accompanied by a sufficient analysis of muscular properties and abilities. pQCT measurements (e.g. at 66% distal tibia) utilize this concept: it allows to quantify the relation between muscular demands and the resulting bone geometry and bone mass on the individual and site-specific level.

This combined analysis is essential to differentiate for example between a primary Osteoporosis and the effects of diuse or lack of mobility. According to Frosts Mechanostat both will result in loss of muscle mass. The difference can therefore not be found in the bone but in its combination with muscle properties and function. Therefore it is essential to quantify the site-specific relation between muscle and bone. In this context the cross-sectional area of the muscle can be used as a surrogate for peak muscular forces, one of the key osteo-anabol parameters. The examples on the right show on the top a healthy muscle-bone relation, in the middle a primary osteoporosis and on the bottom the long-term effects of a spinal cord injury (SCI).

In addition, newest research results show that especially for Sarcopenia, Dynapenia and Frailty the parameter of muscle density (specific property of muscle tissue) in addition to the muscle geometry is essential. The reason for this is currently considered to be mainly the inter- and intra-muscular fatty infiltration. pQCT allowing the combination of geometry and density measurement at an extremely low cost of radiation is therefore the diagnostic method of choice. To add even more details the pQCT based quantification of muscle and bone can be extended by the quantification of muscle function and performance based on the Leonardo Mechanography systems – for example using the complete pQCT Bone & Muscle Bundle.

Typical measurement duration about 1 minute per test (about 3 minutes for standard functional assessment consisting of 4 tests).The test procedures include different jumps for the analysis of individual anaerobic peak power, maximum voluntary muscular force and movement asymmetries. Various balance tests are supported. The split platform allows a quantification of asymmetries of physiological movements. Included in delivery are the measurement platform Leonardo Mechanograph GRFP STD, the frame and the analysis software Leonardo Mechanography BAS. Optionally available is a measurement PC or laptop with software preinstalled.

It is a TÜV-certified manufacturer of Galileo® Training devices, Galileo® Therapy devices and of Leonardo Mechanography® motion analysis systems.To ensure highest quality all products of the medical device manufacturer are developped and manufactured in Germany.Galileo Tarining and Therapy products celebrated their 25th anniversary in 2020.

The basis for the development of the different Galileo series was laid by the sister company Stratec Medizintechnik GmbH (a spin-off of the Stratec Elektronik GmbH, founded 1979). Stratec develops, produces, and distributes world-wide peripheral quantitative computed tomography systems (Stratec pQCT) for muscle and bone analysis as well as xelerate® training systems for cognitive training & fitness.
For more than 30 years the consolidated companies collaborate closely with international research facilities. The realised results are continuously incorporated in our products.

pQCT bone density and geometry, Leonardo mechanography and Galileo Therapie are building blocks of a holistic concept for diagnosis and therapy.

The portfolio of imaging, motion analysis and Galileo Therapy adds up to a holistic concept around the issue of neurology, muscle and bone, ranging from diagnosis to therapy.

In addition to the high scientific standards, the constant expansion of the indication list for the side alternating vibration therapy with Galileo is our priority. The manufacturer puts great emphasis on the differentiation of side alternating Galileo technology to products with different functionalities.

Galileo Training and xelerate – effective and effitient training methods for sports and fitness.

Appart from medical application in therapy and diagnostics, the development and sales of training systems like Galileo Training and xelerate for the fields of (pro)sports, fitness and wellness are another focus of the Novotec Medical GmbH.
