Accurate Osteoporosis Screening Without the Radiation.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Osteoporosis is often called the “silent thief” because it steals bone mass without warning. While identifying risk factors is a good first step, it is not a scientific diagnosis. To truly know your bone health, you need a medical assessment.<\/span><\/p>\n At Advanced Bone Health<\/strong>, we provide the next generation of diagnostics: a radiation-free bone density test<\/strong> using REMS<\/a>. Unlike traditional methods, we use advanced ultrasound technology to measure your bone density, making it safe, painless, and precise.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”0px||” custom_padding_phone=”0px||” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.16″ width=”100%” max_width=”none” custom_padding=”0px||1px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”http:\/\/bonescan.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/sight-seeing-52.png” force_fullwidth=”on” admin_label=”Image” _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_margin=”-9vw||-1px||false|” custom_margin_tablet=”0vw|||” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”List” module_id=”why-should-i-get-tested” _builder_version=”4.19.5″ z_index=”10″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.19.5″ background_color=”#ffffff” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”-50px|auto||auto|false|false” custom_padding=”80px|40px|80px|40px|true|true” box_shadow_style=”preset3″ box_shadow_horizontal=”5px” box_shadow_vertical=”25px” box_shadow_blur=”105px” box_shadow_spread=”-30px” box_shadow_color=”rgba(0,0,0,0.25)” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.19.5″ custom_padding=”|0px||0px|false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#919436″ text_font_size=”20px” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”PT Serif|700|||||||” header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_text_color=”#153847″ header_2_font_size=”50px” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” text_orientation=”center” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”||15px” custom_padding=”||0px|||” header_2_text_align_tablet=”center” header_2_text_align_phone=”left” header_2_text_align_last_edited=”on|phone” header_2_font_size_tablet=”42px” header_2_font_size_phone=”30px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|tablet” text_orientation_tablet=”center” text_orientation_phone=”left” text_orientation_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n REMS<\/strong> stands for Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry<\/em>.

Because bone loss is painless, many people don’t realize they are at risk until a fracture occurs.<\/span><\/p>\n The consequences of these fractures are devastating for both quality of life and independence. According to Osteoporosis Canada (External Source)<\/a>, fractures are more common than heart attacks, strokes, and breast cancer combined. Identification of high-risk patients is essential to preventing these life-altering injuries.<\/span><\/p>\nWhat is a REMS Bone Scan?<\/span><\/h2>\n
