REMS bone scan study for children with bone conditions
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Brain & nervous system, Cancer, Genetic & congenital, Hormones & metabolism, Skin clinical trials.
This study uses a new ultrasound technology called REMS to check bone health in children aged 5 to 18 who have conditions that weaken bones. It may help find low bone density without radiation.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 5 and 18 years old.
- You have a known health condition that affects your bones (like kidney disease, celiac disease, or others).
- You or your parent/guardian can sign a consent form.

This study looks at heart structure and function in children and adults with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a condition that affects bones. Researchers want to understand how OI may impact the heart.
This study looks at how well your bones and muscles work together. By measuring your bone density and handgrip strength, doctors can better understand your bone health and find ways to keep you strong as you age.
This study tests a new ultrasound device (POROUS R4C) to see if it can accurately estimate bone mineral density. If it works well, it could offer a quick, radiation-free way to check bone health.
This trial uses scans like X-rays, CT, or MRI to study how bones and joints age. It aims to understand aging-related problems and may help develop better ways to detect or treat them.
This study checks if a new computer program can find people at risk for osteoporosis more easily, using CT scans you already had. If you are found to be high risk, you'll get a free bone density test (DXA) to confirm, and help improve this tool.
This study tests a new MRI imaging method to detect bone loss (osteoporosis) and muscle loss (sarcopenia) in people with chronic kidney disease. The scan may help doctors catch these problems earlier and manage kidney disease better.
