It's the same machine doing two different jobs, and clinics price them separately. Check which one a quoted price covers.
A whole-body scan that measures fat, lean muscle and bone, broken down by arm, leg and trunk. Most reports also estimate visceral fat, the fat around your organs. It's the scan people use to track a training plan, fat loss or muscle gain.
A scan of the hip and lower spine that measures bone mineral density and gives T-scores and Z-scores. It's used to check for osteopenia and osteoporosis, often after the menopause, a fracture from a minor fall, or long-term steroid use.
We check each price against its source, usually the provider's own website, and record the date we checked it. Where a price comes from somewhere else, we mark it. Prices change, so confirm with the clinic before you book.
