DEXA
What is a DEXA scan?

Bone density or DEXA is used to diagnose several diseases such as Osteopenia and Osteoporosis which is known to cause weakening of the bones. DEXA uses a small amount of X-Ray and a special computer system to create a custom profile of the patient’s bony structure. This can be used to track changes over time and help your doctor adjust therapies as needed.
​
Once your scan is completed, our technologists will send the images to our Board Certified Radiologist who will review and interpret your scan. A written report of the results will be sent to your referring doctor within 48 hours. In most cases, your physician will have your results in 24 hours. A disc of digital images is also available upon request.
