The DEXA body composition scan is a low-dose imaging test that measures lean muscle mass, fat mass, and fat distribution throughout the body. Unlike a scale, it provides a precise snapshot of your body’s composition, helping track changes over time. This allows us to personalize weight loss, nutrition, and exercise plans to optimize fat loss, preserve muscle, and improve overall metabolic health.
A quick, non-invasive DXA scan measures fat distribution, lean muscle mass, and bone density with high precision and minimal radiation exposure.
Results reveal visceral fat, regional fat distribution, and muscle balance to identify metabolic risk factors and health priorities
Your provider reviews results with you, explaining how body composition impacts metabolism, weight management, and overall health.
Findings are used to guide medical weight loss, fitness planning, nutrition strategies, and long-term metabolic optimization.
DXA Body Composition testing is ideal for individuals seeking precise, measurable insights to guide personalized health and weight management decisions.
