Your Body Deserves Real Data, Not Estimates
Searching for a DEXA scan near me? If you’re in Metro Vancouver or on Vancouver Island, you’re in luck. At Bodycomp Imaging, we provide two easy-to-reach locations offering medically accurate DEXA body composition and bone density scans.
Our clients come from Vancouver, Richmond, Surrey, Burnaby, Victoria, Nanaimo, and beyond because we offer more than just scans — we provide insight, clarity, and a personalized health experience.
What Is a DEXA Scan?
DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) is a clinical imaging tool that goes far beyond body weight or BMI. It accurately measures:
- Body fat % and distribution
- Lean muscle mass by limb
- Bone mineral density (BMD)
- Visceral fat risk
- Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR)
It’s the gold standard for anyone serious about health, performance, or prevention.
Why DEXA Over Other Tools?
Home scales? Inaccurate.
Handheld devices? Variable.
Calipers? Outdated.
A DEXA scan is:
- ✅ 98% accurate
- ✅ Painless and non-invasive
- ✅ Trusted in hospitals and sports clinics
- ✅ Ideal for ongoing monitoring
It’s the most reliable scan available — and now it’s available near you.

Yes, and we offer discounts for couples or small groups.
Q3: Are the scans covered by insurance?
Typically not, but some health spending accounts may qualify.

No referral needed — anyone can book.

Absolutely. We serve clients from Vancouver Island, Whistler, Kelowna, and beyond.
