A complete tissue map: bone mineral density with T-scores and Z-scores, lean muscle mass broken out by arms, legs, and trunk, total and regional body fat percentage, and a visceral fat measurement — the fat around your organs that drives metabolic risk. All of it comes from one 10-15 minute pass on an open scanning table.

Through Dexascans.com, a body composition DEXA is $149, a bone density test is $199, and the complete package — body composition plus bone density plus a visceral fat assessment — is $249. Flat pricing, no hidden fees, and HSA/FSA cards work.

For body composition, yes — no referral, no physician visit, just book directly. The only scenario requiring a doctor's order is a bone density exam you want billed to insurance for osteoporosis screening; a self-pay bone density scan skips the order entirely.

No — it is one of the lowest-dose imaging studies in medicine, roughly a tenth of a chest X-ray and less than a single day of natural background exposure. That is why it is safe to repeat annually to track trends. You stay fully clothed on an open table; nothing encloses you and nothing touches you.

Frequently, yes. Both SimonMed locations are accredited imaging providers, so a bone density exam with a physician's order — say, from a doctor affiliated with Banner Ironwood Medical Center — can be billed through insurance, and Medicare covers screening DXA for qualifying patients. Body composition is a wellness service: self-pay at $149, HSA/FSA eligible.

Budget about 30 minutes total; the scan itself runs 10-15 minutes. Results land within 24 hours as a full report covering body fat percentage, regional lean mass, visceral fat, and bone density scores — quick enough to review before your next ride, run, or training block.

Because InBody estimates and DEXA measures. Bioimpedance readings can drift 5-8% with hydration, a meal, or yesterday's workout; DEXA reads tissue directly with low-dose X-ray and repeats within ±1-2%, which is what makes month-over-month comparisons meaningful. DEXA is also the only scan of the two that measures bone density at all.

Almost certainly. SimonMed Imaging - Queen Creek at 36297 N Gantzel Rd sits on the Pinal County side of town near the Combs Road corridor, down the street from Banner Ironwood Medical Center — for most of San Tan Valley and for Encanterra residents, it is minutes away, with no need to cross to the Ellsworth Loop.

For equestrians who show at Horseshoe Park, bone density is fall insurance — knowing your T-score tells you how your skeleton would handle an unplanned dismount, and DEXA is the clinical standard for measuring it. For the runners and mountain bikers logging miles in San Tan Mountain Regional Park, the same scan tracks lean muscle by region and flags whether heavy training volume is costing you bone or muscle.
