About
DEXA Austin Body Composition & VO2 Max Testing is a service offered through Austin Thyroid and Endocrinology that measures body composition and cardiovascular fitness for patients seeking preventative health assessment. The service uses dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry technology to evaluate bone density, muscle mass, fat mass, and overall body composition, as well as VO2 max testing to assess aerobic capacity. The clinic serves patients throughout the Austin area and surrounding Texas communities.
The clinic's approach emphasizes that accurate body composition measurement is essential for overall health and athletic performance. DEXA scans provide detailed information about visceral fat—the fat surrounding internal organs—which the clinic identifies as a significant risk factor for heart disease, type II diabetes, and other conditions. The technology is presented as safe, involving minimal radiation exposure comparable to a cross-country flight, and requires only 10-15 minutes of the patient's time while lying still as the scanning equipment passes over the body.
Services offered include:
- DEXA body composition scan measuring bone mass, muscle mass, fat mass, height, and weight distribution across different body regions
- Bone mineral density testing and fracture risk assessment
- Visceral and subcutaneous fat measurement
- VO2 max testing
