DEXA scans in Detroit

Each DEXA clinic serving Detroit is listed on this page with its address and contact details, so you can find the one on the roads you already drive: Woodward, the Lodge, I-96, or the Mile roads. Wherever you start, the listings carry the details to book, or text or call (786) 420-6630.

Each clinic sets its own self-pay rates — Dexascans.com doesn't fix pricing. Cash-pay DEXA in metro Detroit typically runs $99-$250 depending on whether you want body composition, bone density, or both. Many clinics accept HSA and FSA cards; confirm when you book.

Check the addresses on this page against your route: Woodward runs north from Downtown and Midtown, from New Center or Bagley the Lodge Freeway heads northwest, and Grand River and the Southfield Freeway serve the west side. Each listing shows its contact details.

The listings on this page show each clinic's address. I-96 heads out from the far-west side, and the Lodge and 10 Mile serve northwest neighborhoods like Rosedale Park, so you can see which listing is the shortest drive.

No referral is typically needed for direct-book body-composition scans; confirm with the clinic when you book. Insurance-billed diagnostic bone-density exams are a separate route requiring a physician order — Henry Ford Health or DMC doctors write those regularly.

Physician-ordered bone-density DXA is broadly covered when medically necessary, and Medicare covers screening for qualifying adults. Wellness body-composition scans are self-pay, priced by each clinic (typically $99-$250); auto-industry HSA plans commonly cover the cost with a card swipe.

About 30 minutes door to door at any of the metro Detroit clinics, with 10-15 minutes of open-table scan time — short enough to fit between shifts or on the way home up Woodward.

Yes. The dose is roughly one-tenth of a chest X-ray, so Free Press Marathon trainees and gym regulars rescan every few months to compare fat and lean-mass numbers across a block without any meaningful exposure.

DEXA measures fat, lean mass, and bone directly with low-dose X-ray at about ±1-2% precision, and it breaks lean mass out by region — legs, trunk, arms. Bioimpedance devices estimate from electrical conductance and drift 5-8% with hydration, which is why scan-over-scan DEXA is the number to trend.

Detroit's hospital systems, Henry Ford Health and the Detroit Medical Center, offer bone-density exams through a physician's order. For a direct-book scan, each listing on this page shows its address, so you can see whether it's inside the city or a short drive out on Woodward, the Lodge, or I-96. When we confirm a new clinic, this page lists it.
