What Your Machine Is Worth
Straight answer: most working central DEXA machines wholesale between $8,000 and $40,000 depending on model and generation — and yes, that's well below what refurbished units retail for, because the buyer carries deinstall, freight, refurbishment, warranty, and resale risk. Four things drive where your unit lands:
| Value Driver | What Buyers Look At |
|---|---|
| Model generation | Horizon/iDXA command multiples of Discovery/older Prodigy money; end-of-support models step down hard |
| Tube life | Scan count vs typical tube life for your model — a fresh tube can add thousands |
| Licensed software | Transferable body composition / CoreScan licenses are real money; undocumented software is valued at zero |
| Deinstall access | Ground floor and wide doors vs a third-floor walk-up changes the logistics math in your offer |
Wholesale value bands current as of July 2026.
Honest depreciation curve: DEXA machines lose value in steps, not slopes — each software generation, tube replacement cycle, and OEM end-of-support announcement knocks a tier off. If your model line was recently discontinued, selling sooner beats waiting; the used market prices in support risk faster than most owners expect. You can sanity-check offers against what comparable units retail for on our for-sale listings — expect wholesale to run 40–60% of those retail bands.

What We Buy — and Don't
- We buy: Hologic Horizon and Discovery; GE Lunar iDXA and Prodigy (all generations); Norland and Osteosys central units — working, recently deinstalled, or in service.
- Case-by-case: non-working units with intact tubes and consoles (parts value), and peripheral/pDXA units.
- We generally pass on: pencil-beam units older than ~20 years, machines with no console/software, and units stripped for parts — the freight costs more than the remains are worth. We'll tell you straight rather than lowball.
Selling FAQ
How much is my used DEXA machine worth?
As of July 2026, working Hologic Discovery units typically fetch $8,000–$18,000 wholesale, Horizons $18,000–$35,000, GE Prodigy units $8,000–$20,000, and iDXA units $18,000–$40,000 — retail resale runs higher. Value drivers are model generation, X-ray tube life, which software licenses transfer, service history, and how hard the deinstall is.
Who buys used bone density machines?
Used-equipment dealers and brokers (who refurbish and resell), other facilities buying direct, and exporters serving overseas markets. Dealers offer speed and handle logistics; direct sales net more but you carry the listing, vetting, and freight burden yourself.
Do I handle shipping when I sell my DEXA machine?
Not when selling to a dealer or broker — professional deinstallation and freight are part of the offer, and the price you're quoted should be net to you. If a buyer asks you to arrange rigging and shipping yourself, price that at $2,000–$8,000 and factor it into the comparison.
