What to expect

A DEXA scan, is a simple and non-invasive procedure. The process is painless and usually takes about 15 minutes to complete. During the test, you'll be asked to lie on a padded table while a scanner passes over your body. Here's what you can expect.

Your DEXA report covers the metrics that actually matter: bone density, lean muscle mass by region, body fat percentage, visceral fat, and resting metabolic rate. Together, they give you a complete picture of your body — not a number on a scale, but a breakdown you can act on.
