    A DEXA scan is a type of medical imaging test. It uses very low levels of x-rays to measure how dense your bones are. DEXA stands for “dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry.” Medical experts consider DEXA scans to be the most useful, easy, and inexpensive test for helping to diagnose osteoporosis. The test is quick and painless. What is osteoporosis?
    DEXA stands for 'dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry'. DEXA (also sometimes known as DXA) is a test that measures the density of bones. Density means how much of something there is in a certain amount of space. The denser the tissue, the less X-rays pass through. Air and water are less dense than solid things such as bone.
    DEXA bone density tests are outpatient procedures. You may be able to wear your regular clothes during the test. Or you may be asked to change into a hospital gown. There are no needles or injections in this test. Getting a DEXA test is similar to having a standard X-ray.
    Healthcare providers often recommend a DEXA scan to assess your bone health for osteoporosis and fracture risk if you are older than 50, have had a broken bone, or other illnesses that put your bone health at risk. Research shows women start losing bone mass earlier and faster than men.
