Seth Sevana Hospital uses the latest Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry technology to accurately assess bone health and detect osteoporosis early.
A DEXA (Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) scan, also known as a bone density scan, is the gold standard medical imaging test for measuring bone mineral density.
It uses extremely low-level X-rays to assess the strength of your bones. The examination requires care and technical expertise; our staff are highly trained to ensure accurate readings that help diagnose Osteoporosis and assess the risk of fractures.
We offer more than just a scan. Our service provides a comprehensive range of screening and consultation options.
Stop taking calcium supplements at least 24 hours before your scan to ensure accurate results.
Wear loose clothing. Avoid items with metal detailing like zips, belts, or metal buttons.
Please remove all jewellery, watches, and glasses prior to the scan.
Scan Duration: Approx 10-20 Minutes
