Each clinic sets its own rates; Dexascans.com doesn't price scans. Cash-pay DEXA in Colorado Springs generally lands between $99 and $250, depending on whether you book body composition, bone density, or both. HSA and FSA payments are accepted at many locations, and clinics quote their pricing up front rather than surprise-billing you afterward, which is not how hospital imaging usually works.

Not for body composition, book it directly, no physician involved. Insurance-billed bone density studies typically need an order from your doctor, the same path UCHealth Memorial and CommonSpirit Penrose physicians use for osteoporosis screening. A self-pay bone density scan, priced by the clinic, skips the referral requirement.

For bone density, commonly. Coverage applies when a physician documents medical necessity, such as postmenopausal screening or long-term steroid use. Body composition is a wellness service and self-pay, with the clinic setting the rate, typically $99-$250. Military families should note TRICARE follows the same medical-necessity rules for bone density; HSA/FSA cards work for both scan types.

Yes. And the comparison is instructive: living at 6,035 feet already gives you more daily background radiation than the scan itself, which delivers about a tenth of a chest X-ray. It's painless, open-table, and takes 10-15 minutes, safe enough that athletes rescan several times a year.

Total and regional body fat, lean muscle mass by limb and trunk, visceral fat, and bone mineral density, the same four measurements sports scientists at elite training centers track. For an Incline regular or a Garden of the Gods trail runner, it's the difference between feeling fitter and proving it.

About 30 minutes total; the scan is 10-15 of those, and your report arrives within 24 hours. Tiffany Square sits just off I-25 in Rockrimmon, so it's a quick exit from anywhere between downtown and the Air Force Academy.

InBody and other bioimpedance devices estimate from an electrical signal that shifts 5-8% with hydration, and in the high-desert air of the Pikes Peak region, dehydration is the default state. DEXA measures tissue directly at ±1-2% accuracy and adds bone density, which matters in a city this serious about impact sports.

Constantly. With Fort Carson, Peterson Space Force Base, and the Air Force Academy all in town, body composition standards are a fact of life here. A DEXA at the Rockrimmon studio gives soldiers and guardians exact body fat percentage before official assessments, clinical data instead of tape-test anxiety. Text (786) 420-6630 to book.

Because this is the town where measurement is culture: the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Training Center hosts hundreds of athletes, two dozen national governing bodies are headquartered here, and everyone from Pikes Peak Ascent racers to masters swimmers trains at altitude. DEXA bookends a training block with regional lean mass, fat mass, and bone density, the numbers coaches actually use.
