Advanced tools for body composition insights
Evaluate athletes and help support your goals to optimize their performance
DXA body scanning technology
precisely measure lean and fat mass in the body
Smarter scanning with optional DXAVision
Faster total body scans for a better experience
Elite athletic programs around the world use DXA Technology to measure lean tissue, fat and bone mass, using that data to help evaluate their players, optimizing for performance, monitoring injuries and tracking recovery progress.
Top Professional & Collegiate Sports Teams use DXA

For competitive athletes, changes to body composition can significantly impact performance. By monitoring distribution of fat and lean mass, along with bone density, athletes and trainers receive valuable information to maximize performance.
Tools to help athletes understand impact of diet, lifestyle and exercise on health and performance. Color Coding of Body Composition (lean, fat and bone distribution) images. Metabolic results include RMR, RSMI, BMC, fat and lean trending and more.
Color mapping tool to set threshold adjustments to fat%.1
Smart scanning lets you easily select body regions to scan and report on, including Total Body Less Head (TBLH) and Smaller Body Composition. Use Smaller Body Composition (ROI) to monitor body symmetry and track injury recovery. Data can be help to develop rehabilitation programs.
Provides deep analytic insights with custom equations, metrics and ratios based on 200+ parameters. Use to generate bone and body composition insights that can be applied across your athlete population (including retrospectively).
To assess body composition, traditional Total Body exams scan the entire body and are one of the most time-consuming sites for a DXA exam. With new scan acquisition methods, DXAVision now offers a better experience that reduces both scan time and dose.
DXAVision provides a variety of benefits:
• Scans that are up to 40% faster than traditional Total Body exams2
• Three options for faster Total Body exams
• Lower radiation dose3
• Improve operator efficiency with a time-saving exam protocol
• Comprehensive reporting for BMD and body composition together4
* DXA devices are prescription use device. Federal law restricts these devices to sale, or use, to or on the order of a licensed healthcare practitioner.
