Dexa Body Scans in West Jordan, UT

Understanding your body’s composition helps you set and achieve realistic goals that are unique to you. Advanced Medical Weight Loss offers dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) body scans that accurately measure bone mineral density, lean mass, and body fat. It’s a painless medical procedure that uses advanced radiography instruments to produce high-quality digital results with the least amount of exposure to radiation. We will go over your results with you and make any recommendations that may be beneficial to your health along with routine adjustments as you progress towards your goals. Get started today with a visit to our medical weight loss center.

Are Body Fat Scans Accurate?

The number on the scale doesn’t always give you a complete picture of your body’s overall health. Body fat scans give you a wider scope of information to work with because they more accurately measure lean mass, fat, and bone density. We complete body scans in as little as 5-10 minutes using the latest digital radiography technology with results available within half an hour. Dexa body scans are the most accurate way to know body composition and detect issues such as bone fractures and osteoporosis. For optimal health, it’s a good idea to know the breakdown of your body’s framework. We will help you set realistic goals that are customized for your body type. You will receive suggestions about exercise and nutritional practices that will help you reach your weight loss goals in a reasonable timeframe.

The body composition scans at Advanced Medical Weight Loss can measure the following factors:

  • Certified body weight
  • Approximate metabolic rate at rest
  • Body fat percentage
  • Total lean body mass
