Dexa Scan

A DEXA scan is used to measure bone density by passing a high and low energy X-ray beam through the body, usually in the hip and the spine. Osteoporosis causes more than 8.9 million fractures annually and early detection is key to keeping people safe. The scan takes 10 to 20 minutes to complete and is painless. SBLFCH uses the Horizon DXA, by Hologic.
