What is a REMS Bone Scan?
Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry (REMS) is a cutting-edge ultrasound-based method for evaluating bone health. Unlike traditional techniques like DEXA, REMS uses sound waves to create detailed images of key areas such as the spine and hips. This approach eliminates radiation exposure, offering a safe and reliable way to assess bone density, fracture risk, and overall bone quality.
How Does REMS Work?
REMS sends ultrasound waves through the bone, and the device captures and analyses their reflections using advanced algorithms. This process delivers accurate measurements of bone density and quality, including T-Score and Z-Score results, all without the risks associated with radiation. Residents in Somerset can rely on REMS for precise and safe bone health monitoring.
