That’s an interesting thought. My two scans were vastly different and having had 5 annual dexa scans (same hospital, same machine) one with TBS, I believe the unreliable one was the REMS. I’ll know more when this year’s scan takes place.

I trust my REMS scan more, since it measures bone quality and microarchitecture as well as density. Plus it’s safer ( no radiation)
DEXA is useful, but its ties to the pharma system make me cautious.

I’ll be interested to hear how your next scan turns out.
