A DEXA scan is a fast and painless test that shows exactly how much of your body is made up of fat, muscle, and bone. It gives detailed information about your body composition, far beyond what a regular scale or BMI can tell. Amax Healthcare offers you access to accurate and affordable DEXA scans at trusted centers near you, making it easier to understand your health without spending more.
Unlike generic scales or BMI charts, a DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) scan gives you clinically precise insights into your body’s internal makeup. Here’s what it measures:
The scan is quick, non-invasive, and radiation-safe:
Radiation exposure is minimal—lower than a flight from Dubai to Europe.

DEXA is the gold standard used by hospitals, Olympic teams, and research clinics—and now available to you at Amax Healthcare in Dubai.
