Transform Your Health Journey with Gold-Standard DEXA Body Composition Scan.

When you choose a PERTH DEXA scan, you’re investing in comprehensive insights that empower real change in your health and fitness journey. 

Understanding your body’s true composition is the key to unlocking optimal health, performance, and longevity.

Using low-dose X-ray technology, DEXA creates a medical image that helps you ‘see’ inside your body to track your:

  • Total body mass (overall weight)
  • Fat mass (how many kilograms of fat you have)
  • Lean mass (muscle, organs, and other non-fat tissue)
  • Bone Mineral Content (amount of bone mineral)
  • Bone Mineral Density (concentration of minerals in bones)

  • Bone density at specific sites (spine, hip, forearm)
  • Fat Mass Index (FMI)
  • Lean Mass Index (LMI)
  • Android/Gynoid Ratio
  • Fat Mass Ratio (FMR)
  • Appendicular Lean Mass Index (ALMI)
  • Skeletal Muscle Index (SMI)
