Can a bone density test yield different results on different bones?

@loriesco It is also worth researching REMS test in addition to DEXA.
REMS is newer technology but could prove as good as, or even better than DEXA in the long run.
There are other extensive discussions about REMS on Mayo Clinic Connect that people can search for, so I will not say more here.
Really appreciate you sharing your experience and comment about getting a DEXA that includes TBS score loriesco!

@kfhoz which machine would you believe, Rems or Dexa? My dexa was good, Rems no so.

@kfhoz I'll ask. I get a DEXA with TBS the last two years. I don't know that UCSD is offering it to the public. My surgeon probably would say that it wouldn't have helped them prepare for what they found when they opened me up at my neck. There are some things which they just can't tell in advance. But thank you! The lack of radiation seems like a big plus!
