REMS Versus DXA for Bone Mineral Density (BMD) Evaluation
Bone Density Evaluation by means of the Ultrasound Technology Named Radiofrequency Echographic Multi Spectrometry (REMS) in Comparison With DXA Technique.
Clinical Center involved in the study:IRCCS Orthopedic institute Galeazzi - Sant'Ambrogio The clinical study will evaluate the intra- and inter-operator repeatability of the REMS,(Radiofrequency Echographic Multi Spectrometry) ultrasound diagnostic technology implemented in the EchoStation device (Echolight Spa, Lecce) and the diagnostic accuracy in comparison with DXA (used as standard reference).
Inclusion: patients scheduled for lumbar and/or femoral DXA examination,; female sex,; age range 30-80 years (for repeatability study), age range 50-70 years (for accuracy study),; absence of severe obesity (BMI < 40 kg/m2),; absence of severe walking difficulties,; cognitive underwriting of informed consent.
Exclusion: age below 30 years or over 80 years,; Male sex,; severe walking difficulties,; severe obesity (BMI > 40 kg/m2),; declared pregnancy.
