About REMS Technology
REMS (Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry) uses ultrasound—not X-rays—to evaluate bone health.
By reporting both bone density and indicators of bone quality (strength), REMS helps you understand more about your bones and how to protect them over time.
Using sound waves rather than radiation, this revolutionary technology allows more frequent scanning to follow any treatments or lifestyle changes you are monitoring.
Unlike legacy DEXA, REMS ultrasound offers insight into internal bone strength—not just density. Historically, Bone Mineral Density (BMD) guided fracture-risk decisions, but research shows BMD alone is incomplete.
The REMS-derived Fragility Score—an indicator of bone microarchitecture that is independent of BMD—adds critical context. Evaluating both bone quality and BMD provides a more complete picture of bone health.
REMS is a safe, FDA Cleared technology and can be used on many patient groups who are not indicated for DEXA, like those who are younger, pregnant, have scoliosis or osteoarthritis.

Who Can Benefit from a REMS
Osteoporosis affects many of us—half of all women and up to a quarter of men will break a bone during their lifetime (Bone Health & Osteoporosis Foundation). Yet routine screening often waits until 65+, even though peak bone mass occurs in the late 20s.
REMS ultrasound changes that. This radiation-free scan reports your BMD along with a Fragility Score that reflects bone quality. Beginning REMS checks from age 21 helps you watch for change, set smart habits, and stay ahead of risk. Had a DEXA already? Use REMS as a validation step and to expand the picture of your bone health. Because bone loss is influenced by genetics, lifestyle, and medical factors, early insight and periodic monitoring are a smart strategy.
