DEXA Scans in Arizona's College-Town Training Hub

The 2 clinics listed further down this page run that scan for Tempe, covering 2 ZIP codes across the area. A DEXA scan measures your body fat percentage, how much lean muscle you carry in each limb, the visceral fat around your organs, and your bone mineral density. It takes about 10 minutes and you get the numbers in writing.

Tempe packs a lot of athletic ambition into 40-odd square miles of Maricopa County. Arizona State University's main campus fills the city's north end, Tempe Town Lake hosts rowers and triathletes, and Hayden Butte, the "A" Mountain above Sun Devil Stadium, gets climbed daily by students and locals alike. The city's published DEXA options are listed on this page, each with its address and contact details. The I-10 and US-60 freeways, the Loop 101, and the light rail tie the campus to South Tempe's established neighborhoods, The Lakes and Warner Ranch among them, and to neighboring West Chandler, so students, campus staff, and South Tempe families can all compare the listings and pick what's closest. For a community this dense with competitive swimmers, runners, lifters, and triathletes, DEXA is the difference between guessing at body composition and knowing it.

Who Relies on DEXA Testing in Tempe?

ASU Students, Athletes & Campus Staff

Arizona State's Tempe campus fuels one of the youngest, most active populations in Arizona. Lifters, club-sport athletes, and students cutting or bulking use DEXA to track lean mass and body fat with clinical accuracy instead of gym-scale estimates.

Town Lake Triathletes & Endurance Athletes

Tempe Town Lake is the center of the Valley's triathlon and rowing scene. Endurance athletes use DEXA to dial in race weight, confirm strength blocks are adding muscle, and watch bone density, a real concern for high-mileage runners.

South Tempe Families & Professionals

For residents of The Lakes, Warner Ranch, and the surrounding South Tempe neighborhoods, a DEXA scan is a neighborhood errand, not a hospital trip: one ten-minute scan covering body fat, muscle balance, and bone health.

Frequently Asked Questions - Tempe DEXA Scans

Where can I get a DEXA scan in Tempe, AZ?

DexaFit - Tempe, at 1730 East Warner Road, #4 in Tempe, AZ, runs DEXA scans for the Tempe area. Call (480) 597-6011 to schedule your appointment.

How much does a DEXA scan cost in Tempe?

Expect a cash-pay range of roughly $99–$250 in Tempe — the price depends on the clinic and the scan type, since each provider prices independently. Confirm the number with the clinic when you book; most accept HSA and FSA cards.

Do I need a referral for a DEXA scan in Tempe?

At most clinics a self-pay body composition scan is open booking: no doctor, no paperwork. The referral question mainly comes up for a bone density study you want billed to insurance; hospital imaging departments in Tempe may ask for an order either way.

Does insurance cover DEXA scans in Tempe, Arizona?

Often, yes, but only for bone density. If a physician orders the scan as medically necessary, say after a referral from a doctor at a health system in Maricopa County like Banner Desert Medical Center (adjacent in Mesa), insurance usually covers it. Body composition scans booked for fitness reasons are self-pay. HSA and FSA cards work for both.

Which communities near Tempe do you serve?

Besides Tempe, we book scans for people in Phoenix, Scottsdale, Mesa and Chandler, and across the rest of Maricopa County (480 area).

Is a DEXA scan safe in Tempe?

Yes, and safe enough to repeat, which is why Tempe clients rescan every few months to track progress. The dose is about one-tenth of a chest X-ray, under a normal day of background exposure. It is an open table, not an enclosed tube, and you stay fully clothed.

What does a full body DEXA scan measure in Tempe?

Four things a scale cannot: body fat percentage overall and by region, lean muscle mass in each limb and your trunk, the visceral fat around your organs, and your bone mineral density. One pass on the table, one report; ask which scans are offered in Tempe when you book.

How long does a DEXA scan appointment take in Tempe?

Around half an hour door to door at DexaFit - Tempe, of which 10-15 minutes is table time. Most clinics email the full report within a day or two.

What is the difference between a DXA scan and a DEXA scan?

They are the same thing. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry abbreviates to DXA in clinical notes and to DEXA in everyday use — including on the Tempe listings above. One test, one machine.
