How long does a DEXA scan take?

The entire DEXA scan appointment takes about 15 minutes total. The actual scan itself takes approximately 7 minutes while you lie still on the DEXA table.

How do I prepare for a DEXA scan?

Avoid eating or drinking for 2 hours before your scan. Wear comfortable clothing without metal (zippers, underwire bras). Remove jewelry. For consistent tracking, try to schedule scans at the same time of day.

Is a DEXA scan safe? How much radiation is involved?

Yes, DEXA scans are very safe. The radiation exposure is minimal—less than what you'd receive on a cross-country flight. The scan is non-invasive and painless.

What does a DEXA scan measure?

DEXA scans measure total body fat percentage, lean muscle mass, bone mineral density, visceral fat (dangerous fat around organs), and regional body composition (fat and muscle distribution in arms, legs, and trunk).
