Yes, it came to the US and was approved by the FDA a few years ago. It was created in Italy. If you look up Osteostrong locations you can ask when the Rems will be at their facility. Some functional medicine doctors have them in their offices. It will give you a dexa but also the quality of your bones.

Not many places do it. There have been a number of threads on the site about it, if you want to search for some first-hand experiences.
The technology is similar to getting an abdominal ultrasound: a wand with gel.
