How DEXA Scans Go Beyond BMI

In under 10 minutes, our advanced DEXA scan technology delivers a detailed report on:

  • Body Fat Percentage
    See your total and regional fat mass and body fat percentage in a detailed body composition report.
  • Lean Tissue Mass
    Review lean tissue measurements by body region to track changes and compare symmetry over time.
  • Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT)
    A critical marker of metabolic health, VAT surrounds internal organs and influences key risk factors like blood sugar and cholesterol. DEXA is one of the most reliable ways to measure it.
  • Fat Mass Index (FMI):
    A more accurate indicator of excess fat compared to BMI.

  • Lean Mass Index (LMI):
    Understand the muscle you have relative to your height.

  • Android/Gynoid Ratio:
    Measure the distribution of central fat (associated with higher health risks) versus hip/thigh fat.
  • Appendicular Lean Muscle/Height Ratio:
    Gauge functional muscle mass to monitor physical performance and mobility.
  • Muscle Imbalances & Asymmetries
    Compare left-to-right lean tissue measurements to inform discussions about your training.
  • Bone Mineral Density (BMD)
    View bone measurements as part of your body composition report. This service does not diagnose osteoporosis or replace a medical bone density examination.


Note: Custom Fit DEXA scans provide insight into overall bone health, but are not for osteoporosis diagnosis.
