Radiofrequency Echographic Multi Spectrometry

Radiofrequency Echographic Multi Spectrometry (REMS) is a non-ionizing technology used for osteoporosis diagnosis and fracture risk assessment. It processes raw, unfiltered ultrasound signals acquired during echographic scans of axial sites, including the femur and spine. The signals are analysed in the frequency domain, and bone mineral density is estimated by comparison with reference models. Its accuracy has been tested against DXA technology.
