Why do i need a bone score?
REMS Bone Scan Clinic - First for Wales 🏴
3 in 1 Scan
Bone Density
Assessment of bone mineral density (BMD) at the lumbar spine providing essential parameters for osteoporosis diagnosis, including BMD (g/cm²), T-scores, and Z-scores.
Fragility Score
An independent evaluation of internal bone structure to estimate fracture risk over 5 years using specialized statistical and spectral analysis.
Body Composition
Assessment of body component distribution, delivering measurements for BMI, body fat, and basal metabolic rate during the scan.
What is a Bone Score?
A bone score measures bone density and strength, providing crucial insights into bone health. It helps identify the risk of fractures and conditions like osteoporosis, enabling timely intervention to prevent complications. This assessment is particularly important for individuals at risk of bone loss, such as older adults or those with certain medical conditions, ensuring appropriate treatments and lifestyle adjustments to maintain strong, healthy bones and improve overall well-being.
What is REMS Bone Scan?
A REMS Scan is a non-invasive imaging technique used to measure bone mineral density (BMD) and Bone Score. By providing a precise assessment of bone strength, Rems scans help identify potential risks of osteoporosis and fractures. Unlike traditional X-rays, Rems scans use significantly less radiation, making them a safer option for patients. With early detection and appropriate interventions, individuals can take proactive steps to protect their bones and maintain a healthy, active lifestyle. Rems scans offer a valuable tool for assessing bone health and promoting overall well-being.
Don't Wait to Fracture
Bone density screening is essential as 75% of people with low bone density remain undiagnosed until they suffer a fracture. Early detection allows proactive management, preventing painful and debilitating injuries. High-risk groups include postmenopausal women, men over 50, individuals with a family history of osteoporosis, those on long-term steroids, smokers, and people with conditions like rheumatoid arthritis. Don’t wait for a fracture—prioritise your bone health today.

Frequently Asked Questions
A REMS (Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry) Bone Scan is a cutting-edge, non-invasive method to assess bone density and evaluate bone health.
Unlike DEXA scans, REMS uses ultrasound technology, is radiation-free, and provides precise bone health analysis.
Individuals at risk for osteoporosis, those with a family history of bone health issues, or anyone seeking to understand their bone health better.
The scan uses ultrasound waves to measure bone density at specific sites like the lumbar spine or femur. It’s quick, painless, and non-invasive.
No special preparation is required. Wear comfortable clothing that allows easy access to the scanning area.
The procedure typically takes about 10–15 minutes.
