About these scans
What is it? DEXA uses low-dose X-rays to distinguish fat, lean tissue and bone. A body composition scan looks at the whole body; it does not replace a dedicated hip and spine bone-density scan.
Why do people get one? To establish a baseline, see how fat and lean tissue are distributed, or track changes over time alongside training or weight changes.
How does it work? Book a location and follow its preparation instructions. During the scan, you lie still on an open table. You receive a report afterward; whether it includes a walkthrough, written review or consultation depends on the scan you choose.
