Diagnosis of bone tissue condition using the method of radio frequency echographic multispectrometry (Radio frequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry ― REMS) in elderly patients with osteoporosis and various skeletal features

The Radio Frequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry (REMS) is a non-ionizing technology that can be used for diagnosing and monitoring osteoporosis, providing broader access to measuring bone mineral density (BMD) along the axial direction compared to standard dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). REMS allows assessing BMD in specific patient groups with skeletal peculiarities such as metal implants, skeletal deformations, or conditions that make DXA difficult to perform. The portability and lack of ionizing radiation enable REMS to measure BMD at the bedside of immobile patients, avoiding complications associated with equipment installation (DXA) and related radiation protection measures.
