What is a Bone Density Scan?

A bone density scan assesses the strength and quality of your bones using REMS technology (Radiofrequency Echographic Multi‑Spectrometry). REMS is a modern, non‑invasive ultrasound‑based technology that involves no radiation and provides a safe, accurate way to monitor bone health over time.


REMS: A New Standard in Bone Imaging

  • Radiation-free, safe and gentle

  • Uses ultrasound technology, not X-rays

  • Quick, simple, and comfortable, takes just minutes

  • Results are reviewed by our clinical team

  • A full report is shared with you after the scan


REMS Can Also Measure:

  • Bone Mineral Density (BMD)

  • Bone microarchitecture (fragility)

  • Body composition

  • Potential risk of suffering an osteoporotic (low bone density) induced fracture using specialised FRAX® Integration software

Why Get a Bone Density Scan?

  • It finds early signs of bone loss before any symptoms or fractures happen

  • It helps with early diagnosis of osteoporosis, a condition where bones become weak and break easily

  • It gives you peace of mind and a clear plan to protect your bone health


Who Should Get a Bone Scan?

A bone scan is recommended if you:

  • Are middle‑aged or older

  • Are postmenopausal or had an early menopause

  • Had your ovaries removed before age 45 and have not received hormone replacement therapy (HRT)

  • Have a family history of osteoporosis

  • Experienced bone fractures from minor falls or unexplained height loss

  • Have arthritis or other conditions affecting bone strength

  • Have low calcium or vitamin D levels

  • Have taken oral steroids (glucocorticoids) for three months or more, which can weaken bones


Who Should Get a Bone Scan?

How to prepare for your appointment?

  • The patient should wear loose comfortable clothing with no metal.

  • The test takes samples from both the hip joint and the lower spine (though the stomach).

  • The test can take between 15- 20 minutes and will require a consultation for the results.

  • There will be an Echo light report generated by the machine, which is to be interpreted by the referring clinician.
