Do not miss it!
Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry (REMS) is an innovative, non-ionizing diagnostic technique that has shown high accuracy and precision, making it a promising alternative to DXA for osteoporosis diagnosis in clinical settings.
In 2023 the American Medical Association (AMA) – CMS assigned a CPT code for the reimbursement of REMS bone assessment, officially applicable from January 2024.
A recent study titled “Proposed practice parameters for the performance of radiofrequency Echographic multispectrometry (REMS) evaluations” was published on the Bone Joint Open by international key Opinion Leaders from the USA and UK.
