DEXA Scan

Home / Radiology / DEXA Scan

Chughtai Lab offers a DEXA scan, which is a high-precision X-ray that measures your bone mineral density and bone loss. A DEXA scan tends to be more accurate than a typical x-ray, because it can detect even small changes in bone loss. Doctors consider it more reliable than other methods of calculating body fat percentage.

DEXA scan can help:

  • Assess bone strength
  • Detect osteoporosis before a fracture occurs
  • Measure total body fat
  • Predict your chances of fractures in the future (FRAX report)
  • Track the progress of your treatment
