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.

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.

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

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