ECHOLIGHT REMS Bone Scan – Advanced, Radiation-Free Bone Density Testing Accurate. Safe. Non-Invasive.
Treasure Coast Bone Scans now offers REMS bone scanning, an advanced technology for evaluating bone health and fracture risk—without radiation exposure. REMS provides precise bone mineral density (BMD) assessment using ultrasound-based analysis, making it a safe and effective alternative to traditional DEXA scans.
What is a REMS Scan?
REMS (Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry) is a modern diagnostic technology that evaluates bone strength using advanced ultrasound signal analysis rather than X-rays. It is clinically validated and used worldwide for osteoporosis screening and monitoring.
DEXA Scans only give you the bone quantity
How much bone material (calcium) do you have in your skeleton?
REMS tells you bone quantity and QUALITY
Are your bones strong or weak?
Osteoporosis is a SILENT disease. The only way to diagnosis it is with a scan.
If you wait until age 65 to get scanned, you will miss out on 15 years of potential treatment and suffer natural decline.
REMS compared to DEXA
Who Should Consider a REMS Scan
- Women over age 45 and men over age 65
- Post-menopausal women
- Patients with a family history of osteoporosis
- Individuals taking medications that affect bone health (such as steroids or hormone therapy)
- Anyone being monitored for osteopenia or osteoporosis
- Patients with previous fractures
- Patients who prefer to avoid radiation exposure
- Anyone over age 30 wanting a baseline bone density
Osteoporosis often progresses without symptoms until a fracture occurs.
Early detection allows timely intervention to reduce fracture risk and preserve independence and mobility.
REMS scanning offers a modern, patient-friendly approach to bone health assessment.
