What is DEXA?

A DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) scan is a non-invasive imaging test that measures:

  • Body fat percentage

  • Lean muscle mass

  • Visceral fat

  • Bone density

The scan takes only a few minutes and provides detailed information about how fat and muscle are distributed throughout your body.

DEXA is widely used in hospitals, sports medicine, and preventive health programs because of its high accuracy and reliability.

Core Metrics of DEXA

Core Metrics of DEXA

Core Metrics of DEXA

Fat Percentage (Fat%)
Shows how much of your weight is fat. High fat% increases disease risk, while very low fat harms hormones. Balanced levels support health.
Appendicular Lean Mass Index (ALMI)
Measures muscle in arms and legs. Low ALMI signals weakness, while higher values reflect strength and resilience.
Bone Quality
Indicates bone strength and density. Low values raise osteoporosis risk, while healthy density protects long-term skeletal health.
