FAQ's
Is the scan painful or uncomfortable?
Not at all. The scan is painless, involves no needles, and takes about 10–20 minutes. You simply lie comfortably on a padded table while a scanner moves over your body.
How do I prepare for the scan?
No special preparation is needed. You can eat and drink normally. Wear loose, comfortable clothing without metal (zippers or buttons), and let the clinic know if you’ve had any recent contrast imaging studies (like CT scans with dye).
Is the radiation exposure safe?
Yes. DEXA scans use very low levels of radiation—less than a standard chest X-ray—and are considered safe for regular use when medically indicated.
Can it track progress over time?
Yes! DEXA scans are ideal for monitoring changes in bone density and body composition, allowing your doctor to track treatment effectiveness and health trends.
