DEXA Scans in San Angelo, TX
San Angelo anchors the Concho Valley — county seat of Tom Green County, home to Angelo State University and the training wings of Goodfellow Air Force Base. Both of the city's verified DEXA locations belong to Shannon, the health system West Texans already drive hours to reach, which means your bone density and body composition get measured on the same campuses that handle the region's serious medicine.

Shannon covers San Angelo from two ends of town. The flagship Shannon Medical Center campus sits downtown at 120 E. Harris Ave, a few blocks from the Concho River — and a block away at the Shannon Breast Center, the system runs its BodyLogic DXA program, a body composition scan reporting fat, lean muscle, and bone that doesn't require a physician referral. Across town, Shannon South at 3501 Knickerbocker Road carries imaging services on the hospital campus that serves the city's fast-growing southwest side, convenient to Bentwood, College Hills, and the Bluffs. Neither location lists a direct booking line on our directory, so let Dexascans.com set the appointment — text or call (786) 420-6630 and we handle the scheduling.

Frequently Asked Questions - San Angelo DEXA Scans
Where do I get a DEXA scan in San Angelo?
Both verified locations are Shannon campuses: Shannon Medical Center downtown at 120 E. Harris Ave and Shannon South at 3501 Knickerbocker Road on the southwest side. Text or call Dexascans.com at (786) 420-6630 and we book whichever campus suits you.
What's the price of a DEXA scan in San Angelo?
Through Dexascans.com it's $149 for body composition, $199 for a bone density test, and $249 for the complete package covering body comp, bone density, and visceral fat. HSA and FSA funds work for all three.
Is a referral needed before booking a San Angelo DEXA appointment?
For a body composition scan, no — Shannon's own DXA body-comp program is offered without a physician referral, and Dexascans.com books wellness scans directly. Bring a doctor's order only if you want a bone density test billed to insurance as medical screening.
Does insurance pay for bone density testing in San Angelo?
Often, yes — when a physician's order documents medical necessity, and Medicare covers screening DXA outright for those who qualify. Body composition is treated as self-pay wellness at the $149 Dexascans.com rate.
Is the radiation from a DEXA scan safe?
It's about one-tenth of a chest X-ray — less than a normal day of background radiation in West Texas. That tiny dose is exactly why DEXA works for repeat tracking, not just one-time diagnosis.
What does DEXA measure that my scale at home can't?
Bone mineral density, lean muscle by body region, and fat mass including the visceral fat packed around your organs. A scale gives you one number; DEXA tells you what that number is made of.
How much time should I set aside, and when are results ready?
You're on the table 10-15 minutes and out the door in about 30, with results delivered within 24 hours. It's an errand, not a procedure.
Is DEXA more accurate than the InBody handles at a San Angelo gym?
Considerably — bioimpedance devices drift 5-8 percent with hydration, which in dry West Texas summers is a real variable. DEXA measures tissue directly at ±1-2 percent and adds bone and visceral fat data no gym device produces.
What's the easiest Shannon campus to reach from Goodfellow AFB?
The downtown campus at 120 E. Harris Ave is the short trip — about ten minutes from the gate via Houston Harte Expressway. Airmen in southwest housing near the Bluffs or Bentwood may find Shannon South on Knickerbocker Road quicker.
Who in San Angelo gets real value from a DEXA scan?
Service members held to body-comp standards, Angelo State athletes tracking lean mass, and retirees across the Concho Valley who want bone density checked before a fall makes the diagnosis. If your health plan for the year has a measurable goal, DEXA is how you keep score.

San Angelo Residents Who Put DEXA Numbers to Work
Goodfellow AFB Airmen and Students
The 17th Training Wing keeps roughly 5,000 service members from every branch in San Angelo, all held to body composition standards that a tape measure only approximates. A DEXA scan reports lean mass and fat percentage with clinical precision, so you know where you stand before an assessment does the deciding for you.
Angelo State Athletes and Cadets
Rams athletes, intramural competitors, and AFROTC cadets chasing commissioning physicals all benefit from region-by-region muscle data. A baseline scan plus a follow-up each semester turns training into something you can audit.
West Texas Retirees Watching Bone Density
The Concho Valley retires hard-working people — decades of ranch, oilfield, and trade labor — and osteoporosis rarely announces itself before the first fracture. A $199 bone density test through Dexascans.com establishes the baseline, and Medicare covers screening DXA when a physician orders it.
