Preparation For Body Composition Scans
It's easy to prepare for your body composition scan. · Wear soft, comfortable clothing without metal fastenings or underwires. · Remove jewellery, watches, and items from your pockets. · Stay well-hydrated before your scan. · You might be instructed to avoid eating for at least three hours prior to your appointment, and/or stop taking any calcium supplements for 24 hours before your scan. Following these steps will help ensure accurate and reliable results.
The Procedure
A body composition scan is a type of DEXA scan. It uses low-dose X-rays to generate images of your whole body. Before the scan, you might be asked to change into a medical gown. You'll then need to lie down on a flat bed or couch with a scanning arm positioned above it. The scanner moves over your whole body from head to toe. You could be asked to change position during the scan, and blocks or straps may be used to help you lie comfortably and keep still.
How Long Does It Take?
Body composition scans take just a few minutes to complete. They are fast and painless, and you can return to your day as normal afterwards.
When You Will Receive Results
After your body composition scan, a full report, including images, data tables about your body composition, and a description of the findings, will be shared with you digitally. It can take up to 7-10 working days to receive your report, but it is often much faster depending on the scanning site you have chosen.
