Did you of you have the full scan like did they scan you above the head.. It's so weird why some machines just like that scan go over the head

Thanks for your video! I'm having my first test tomorrow and wasn't sure what to expect.

[@vanessabcoleman8]

I had no idea how simple this test would be. I have an appointment this afternoon and it has been rescheduled 3 times! It sounds invasive and I avoided it. Thank you for sharing! ❤

[@deeh.6304]

I had a bone density test today; mine was done similar, but slightly different. The first part was exactly the same ( on back laying flat). But the next step was different ~ I sat on a chair next to table, with left arm ( non dominant)flat on table. That was it!

[@Feelingboobiful]

To clarify no IV?

[@DEEDEEGARRETT1]

Thank you for this video. I have an appointment tomorrow and am now relived it's painless.

[@hollylorn131]

[@marleanamarlianamont5939]

Why do some videos show the machine exactly like this one going up to the entire head? If pictures are just supposed to be the hip and legs? Thanks

[@kazbaz8645]

Thank you for sharing. I wonder if they could scan my little finger while I am there as I think I broke it ...........

[@chadrobertson7863]

Thank you so much the video was very informative.

[@shelleylemmond46]

I heard contrast would be used but that's good it wasn't. Thank you for sharing 😀.

[@loisallen8938]

Thank you for sharing.

[@K-E2019]

What were they doing when they had me on my side ?

[@sukaynaalyraza3973]

I have today.
Problem with me is sleeping straight as I feel dizzy .
Maybe they will give more Pillows.

[@Diane0707]

I would of thought it would of been of the whole body. Why just the lower part of the body?

[@patriciamuller5605]

Thank you for sharing

[@lewiscox3014]

I’ve broken my collarbone twice in 4 months. Will the scan show the density of my collarbone? And compare to say my none broken side?

[@FernandoRamos-yp7ef]

Thank you I want to do one and I was wondering if they do all my body . Do they do that in the middle of my back ?

[@danine56]

I’m going for a test in 8 weeks

[@WM-en4yl]

What does this Dexa scan cost the person who doesn't have Medicaid?

[@AnalytiCritic]

Thanks - Was curious to know how to dress, & what would be done. Appreciate this!!🙏Namaste!!

[@vanesslifeygo]

ooh, I'd be among the younger ones to get one if I go through with one. :{

[@Dandelion_flight]

Hi Julia, thanks so much for sharing with us this. A personal question. May I know if your mum and aunt who have bad osteoporosis are on HRT at all? Does Dexa not scan hands and feet? Can osteoporosis be happening at certain parts of othe body but not other parts? Thanks.

[@patriciadavis5939]

I have a test coming up soon and feel a little nervous.
