Highlight:<\/strong><\/p>\n

The impact of osteoporosis and the resulting bone fracture on both patient\u2019s life and healthcare systems is constantly increasing and innovative tools for early diagnosis and monitoring of this disease are urgently needed. Bone mineral density (BMD) measurement are now based on Dual-energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA), but reported limitations of this technique boosted the scientific research to identify reliable and accurate alternative approaches.<\/p>\n

To address the actual unmet clinical needs, a working group convened by the European Society of Clinical and Economic Aspects of Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis (ESCEO)<\/strong> reviewed the data on the currently available imaging techniques for the in vivo bone strength assessment and discussed principles, applications and perspectives of the innovative Radiofrequency Echographic Multi-Spectrometry (REMS) technology.<\/p>\n

In this work, they show how REMS represents the first clinically available method for direct non-ionizing measurement of lumbar and femoral BMD, being an accurate diagnostic parameter for bone strength estimation and identification of individuals at high risk of fracture<\/strong>. Moreover, REMS has shown a further potential in the assessment of skeletal fragility based on bone structure quality through the Fragility Score parameter, which is independent from the densitometric evaluation.<\/p>\n
