DEXA Scan

This scan provides detailed images of your bone structure and body composition. The Zoī DEXA protocol provides three essential measurements: fat tissue, lean mass, and bone density.

• Bone mineral density is measured at different points in the body, specifically the spine and hips. This is crucial for estimating fracture risk and preventing age-related conditions like osteoporosis and sarcopenia.
• The distribution of fat mass, lean mass, Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT), Subcutaneous Adipose Tissue (SAT), Resting Energy Expenditure (REE), and Skeletal Muscle Index (SMI) are key indicators for preventing obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic disorders.
