DXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) scans measure bone mineral density to detect osteoporosis or low bone mass. Early detection allows for preventive strategies, lifestyle adjustments, and treatments such as hormone therapy, supplements, or medications to reduce fracture risk and maintain strong bones.
We review age, gender, family history, medications, and risk factors that may contribute to bone loss or fracture risk.
A low-radiation, non-invasive DXA scan measures bone mineral density at key areas such as the spine and hips.
Bone density scores are analyzed and compared to age-based and healthy reference ranges.
Results are reviewed with your provider to guide lifestyle changes, supplementation, or medical treatment if needed.
DXA Bone Density testing is ideal for individuals seeking early detection and prevention of bone loss and fracture risk.
Yes. Radiation exposure is very low and considered safe.
No. The test is painless and non-invasive.
The scan typically takes 10 minutes or less.
Frequency depends on risk factors, usually every 1–2 years.
