Frequently Asked Questions - Marathon DEXA Scans

Where can I get a DEXA scan in Marathon, FL?

We don't run a clinic in Marathon. We book you into the nearest partner imaging clinic serving the Marathon area. Text or call (786) 420-6630 and we'll come back with the closest available scanner and a time.

How much does a DEXA scan cost in Marathon?

$149 for a body composition scan, $199 for a bone density test, or $249 for the package that covers both plus visceral fat. Those are the prices booked through Dexascans.com, with no added fees. HSA and FSA payments are accepted.

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

Not for a body composition scan. You can book that directly. A bone density scan billed to insurance usually needs a physician's order, though if you pay cash for it, no referral is required either.

Does insurance cover DEXA scans in Marathon, Florida?

Often, yes, but only for bone density. If a physician orders the scan as medically necessary, insurance usually covers it. Body composition scans booked for fitness reasons are self-pay, starting at $149. HSA and FSA cards work for both.

Which communities near Marathon do you serve?

Besides Marathon, we book scans for people in Miami, Tampa, Orlando and Jacksonville, and across the rest of the Marathon area.

Is a DEXA scan safe?

Yes. A DEXA scan delivers roughly a tenth the radiation of a chest X-ray, less than you absorb from natural background sources in a normal day. Nothing touches you and nothing is injected. You lie still for 10-15 minutes.

What does a full body DEXA scan measure?

Total and regional body fat percentage, how lean muscle is distributed across your arms, legs, and trunk, visceral fat around the organs, and bone mineral density. All of it from one 10-minute scan.

How long does a DEXA scan appointment take?

Budget about 30 minutes including check-in. The scan itself runs 10-15 minutes. Your results report arrives within 24 hours.

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

Nothing. Both stand for dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. DXA is what clinicians write, DEXA is what most people say. Same test, same machine.
