Red sandstone frames every view in St. George, and the landscape has turned Washington County's hub into one of the country's genuine endurance-sports towns: the St. George Marathon fills the streets every October, the city has hosted Ironman world-championship racing, Snow Canyon State Park sits at its northwest edge, and Zion National Park is the region's crown jewel. The city's published DEXA option is DexaFit St. George at 1841 E Riverside Dr #202, on the Riverside Drive corridor along the Virgin River and the city's paved trail network. Utah Tech University adds a growing student population downtown, while the warm winters keep drawing active retirees who hike and ride year-round. Intermountain's St. George Regional Hospital anchors medical care for all of southwest Utah, and for a city this saturated with triathletes, trail runners, and golfers, DEXA is the natural measurement layer: exact body fat, lean mass, and the bone density data that decides how long the active years last.

Frequently Asked Questions - St. George DEXA Scans

Where can I get a DEXA scan in St. George, UT?

DexaFit St. George, at 1841 E Riverside Dr #202 in St. George, UT, runs DEXA scans for the St. George area. Book through Dexascans.com to schedule your appointment.

How much does a DEXA scan cost in St. George?

$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 for St. George, with no added fees. HSA and FSA payments are accepted.

Do I need a referral for a DEXA scan in St. George?

Not for a body composition scan — you can book that at DexaFit St. George 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 St. George, Utah?

Often, yes, but only for bone density. If a physician orders the scan as medically necessary, say after a referral from a doctor at a Washington County health system like Intermountain St. George Regional Hospital, insurance usually covers it. Body composition scans booked for fitness reasons are self-pay. HSA and FSA cards work for both.

Is a DEXA scan safe in St. George?

Yes. A DEXA scan at DexaFit St. George 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 in St. George?

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 at DexaFit St. George.

How long does a DEXA scan appointment take in St. George?

Budget about 30 minutes including check-in at DexaFit St. George. 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, and DexaFit St. George runs the same test under either name. Same test, same machine.
