What is a DEXA scan?
A DEXA scan is a type of medical imaging test that measures bone density and body composition. It uses low-dose X-rays to determine the strength of bones and assess the risk of osteoporosis or fractures.
Why would I need a DEXA scan?
You may need a DEXA scan if you're at risk for osteoporosis, have a history of fractures, or want to assess your bone health. It’s also used to measure body composition, such as muscle mass and fat distribution.
Are there any risks associated with a DEXA scan?
The risks from a DEXA scan are minimal. It uses very low levels of radiation, significantly lower than other types of X-ray scans, making it a safe option for most patients.
