What 3 things does DEXA measure?
A DEXA scan usually helps a doctor assess bone density. It may also have uses in determining body composition, such as the percentage of lean muscle and fat. The dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scan uses two low-energy X-ray beams. This allows the image to show both soft tissue and bone.Apr 26, 2022
