Body Composition Scans

Body composition analysis, conducted through DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry), is a specialised examination that measures bone density, body fat, and muscle mass.
The DEXA scan offers precise analysis of body composition, including subcutaneous fat, muscle, and bone mineral content. The accurate tracking of these measurements provides valuable insights for individuals managing weight and athletes striving to achieve their goals.
The scan typically takes 10 to 15 minutes.
 

Before:

  • Female patients should inform the staff if they are pregnant or suspect they might be.
 
 

During:

  • You will lie on an examination couch, and a mechanical arm will pass over your body during the scan.
  • You will not feel anything during the scan, and the radiation exposure is very low.
 
 

After:

  • You may resume normal activities.
