DEXA Pro Scan

The scales tell you what you weigh. They tell you nothing about what that weight is made of. A DEXA Pro Scan is a quick, precise way to measure your actual body composition, mapping fat, muscle and bone so you can train and track with real numbers instead of a single misleading figure.

What It Is

Weight alone hides a lot. Two people at the same weight can have very different amounts of muscle, fat and bone. DEXA uses low-dose imaging to separate them, and crucially it shows where fat sits, including the visceral fat stored around your organs that matters most for metabolic health. It is one of the most precise body composition measures available, which is exactly what makes it useful as a baseline.

What It Measures

Your DEXA Pro Scan measures visceral fat, lean muscle mass and bone density, giving a detailed breakdown of your body composition in a single sitting. The result is an accurate map of your body rather than an estimate.

What To Expect

The scan is performed at a partner imaging centre and is quick, usually ten to fifteen minutes. You lie flat on a padded table while a scanning arm passes over you. It uses a very low dose of radiation, which the team is transparent about, with nothing to swallow and no enclosed space. Wear comfortable clothing without metal fastenings if you can, and you can carry on with your day straight afterwards.

Your Results

Your results appear in the Precursor app as a clear breakdown of fat, muscle and bone, and your clinician helps you interpret them and set goals. Because body composition is something you will want to track, the app is built to show change between scans, so you can see your training and nutrition working over time.

Book a DEXA Pro Scan to see what your body is really made of and set a baseline worth tracking.
