Through Dexascans.com, body composition analysis starts at $149, bone density testing is $199, and the complete package — body composition, bone density, and visceral fat — is $249. HSA and FSA cards are accepted at booking, and flat pricing means no facility-fee surprises afterward.

Not for body composition — that books directly. Insurance-billed bone density studies generally need a physician's order, the same workflow used by doctors affiliated with Texas Health Harris Methodist, Baylor Scott & White All Saints, and JPS. Self-pay bone density at $199 skips the referral.

For bone density, frequently — Medicare and most commercial plans cover DXA osteoporosis screening when a physician documents medical necessity. Body composition scans are wellness services, self-pay from $149. HSA/FSA funds apply to both, and military families near NAS JRB should note TRICARE follows the same medical-necessity rules.

Yes — each scan is about a tenth of a chest X-ray, less than a day of background radiation, so Cowtown Marathon trainees commonly scan at the start and end of a build. It's a painless 10-15 minutes on an open table, fully clothed, no prep and no recovery.

One scan reports total and regional body fat percentage, lean muscle by arm, leg, and trunk, visceral fat, and bone mineral density. Whether you're logging Trinity Trails miles, working a line at the Lockheed Martin plant, or lifting near TCU, it's the complete structural audit in ten minutes.

Budget about 30 minutes including check-in; table time is 10-15 minutes and results arrive within 24 hours. With offices on Pennsylvania Avenue, Altamesa Boulevard, and Golden Triangle Boulevard, most of the million people in this city are within 20 minutes of a scanner.

InBody-style devices push a small current through the body and estimate composition, so results move 5-8% with hydration — a genuine issue after training in Texas heat. DEXA measures tissue directly with low-dose X-ray at ±1-2% and additionally reads visceral fat and bone density, which impedance machines cannot.

Yes to both ends of the city. Envision Imaging at Pennsylvania sits in the Near Southside on the same avenue as Texas Health Harris Methodist, and Highland Longevity covers the Alliance Town Center area near the Keller border, where DEXA anchors its longevity baseline testing. Text (786) 420-6630 for whichever end of town you're on.

The Cowtown Marathon and roughly 100 miles of Trinity Trails keep this city training year-round, while NAS JRB Fort Worth and the aviation workforce face real fitness standards. DEXA converts all of it into hard numbers — regional lean mass, body fat percentage, bone density — so training blocks and assessments are met with data, not hope.
