In this episode, Dr. Doug sits down with orthopedic spine surgeon Dr. Nick Birch to break down why the T-score alone is not an accurate measure of fracture risk. Dr. Birch explains how REMS imaging adds bone toughness and the fragility score, giving a far clearer picture of real-world bone strength. Together they explore how misinterpreting T-scores leads to fear, misdiagnosis, and unnecessary lifestyle limitations, and how better data can help women stay active and confident.*Get the science behind changing T-scores and REMS results in this live webinar with leading experts.* Register here: https://us02web.zoom.us/meeting/register/sI1HCl8vSuuWKfapFN6Fpg?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBEwMEpFeW1HeW12NzdXSGZPSAEeZXcxUyBosU4K09yxVS2yRX5_pt7aB76KvOjYJLsAhrbbXSJy8Hu0TbeKj2M_aem_G467WAHSeZOk5H9IRxNyrQ*Connect with Dr. Nick Birch*Osteoscan UK: https://www.osteoscanuk.com/International Institute of Musculoskeletal Health Education (IIMHE): https://iimhe.org/🦴 *Stronger Bones.

In this video Dr. Doug interviews Ludovic Humbert, co-founder and chief science officer of 3D Shaper, to unpack how this new imaging software turns a standard 2D DEXA hip scan into a 3D analysis of cortical and trabecular bone. They explore how it compares to DEXA, REMS, and CT, why it may improve fracture risk prediction, and how it could guide more personalized treatment decisions. They also discuss FDA clearance, clinical adoption, and future possibilities like strength modeling and spine analysis. *3D Shaper Medical*Website: https://www.3d-shaper.com/*Body Analytics*Website: https://bodyanalytics.fit/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/knowyourbodyownyourhealthYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@bodyanalytics8964Phone: 314-471-5373🦴 *Stronger Bones.

In this video, Dr. Doug Lucas reviews a new study testing osteogenic loading combined with melatonin and explains why the results fall within the margin of error on DEXA. He breaks down why melatonin likely drove the small improvements seen and why osteogenic loading alone didn’t show benefit. He also highlights major flaws in the study design and what better research needs to look like going forward.*Study Links*https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/41059603/🦴 *Stronger Bones.
