DEXA Screening

WellPath partners with Dexa Body to offer mobile DEXA (DXA) scans for advanced body composition analysis. The Dexa Body Mobile Testing Unit provides onsite screenings for Community members.

What is a DEXA Scan?

A dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scan measures body composition—including the amount of fat, lean (non-fat) tissue, and bone in the body. The scan requires you to lie flat on your back and remain still for up to 10 minutes.

The Dexa Body Composition Analysis Scan provides:

• A detailed printed report
• Consultation with a WellPath Coach to review your results
• Comparison to previous scans to monitor changes over time

Your DEXA report and consultation include:

• Total weight breakdown from:
  • body fat
  • muscle mass and muscle symmetry
  • bone
  • regional composition (arms, legs, trunk, etc.)
• Images of bone, lean tissue, and fat tissue

Baseline measurements are used to track long-term changes—especially after lifestyle or weight changes. Follow-up scans help evaluate the effectiveness of diet and exercise programs.
