Dexa Body Scans

Newson Clinic offers state of the art DEXA bone density scans which can be useful to assess your bones, muscle and fat. DEXA stands for dual energy X-ray absorptiometry, and this non-invasive scan uses radiation at a much lower dose than a standard X-ray.
‍
During the scan you will lie on a flat padded table, and a scanning arm is moved over the body to take the measurements. It's a safe, quick, and painless procedure that takes about 45 minutes.

We are unable to offer a DEXA bone density scan to anyone who is not a registered Newson Clinic patient. To speak to our team please call us on 01789 595 004.

What it measures:

DEXA bone density scans measure the amount of bone in a specific area of the body. This is to diagnose osteoporosis (weak bones) and assess the risk of fractures.

Results:

The results are used to assess bone density and compare it to age-matched norms to determine if bone density is normal, low (osteopenia),or very low (osteoporosis).

We are unable to offer DEXA scans to anyone who is not a registered Newson Clinic patient. You will need a referral from your Newson Clinic clinician to book a DEXA scan.
