What is a DEXA SCAN FEMUR Test in Delhi ?
What is DEXA SCAN FEMUR?
A DEXA scan of the femur measures bone mineral density (BMD) in the hip/thigh bone. It shows how much mineral is packed into the bone. It is non-invasive and shows internal structures directly, providing information that blood and urine tests cannot.
What does DEXA SCAN FEMUR show?
Strong bone reduces the chance of breaks. Low BMD suggests osteopenia or osteoporosis, which increase fracture risk. Doctors use the femur DEXA to screen at-risk adults, confirm a diagnosis, and monitor treatment. Results help guide medicines, lifestyle advice, and fall-prevention steps.
What symptoms suggest DEXA SCAN FEMUR may be needed?
A doctor may recommend DEXA SCAN FEMUR when a patient reports localised pain, swelling, or injury, a lump or restricted movement, or an abnormal finding on an earlier test that needs to be examined directly. If you have these symptoms, GetVisit offers booking and home collection across South Extension, Uttam Nagar, and other parts of Delhi.
How is DEXA SCAN FEMUR done?
This is an imaging scan, not a blood or fluid test, so no sample is collected. A qualified radiographer positions you at an accredited GetVisit-partnered imaging centre in South Extension or Uttam Nagar, Delhi and captures the images in a few minutes. A radiologist reviews them and your report is made available through GetVisit.
How accurate is DEXA SCAN FEMUR?
GetVisit partners only with accredited imaging centres in and around South Extension, Uttam Nagar, and Delhi that use maintained, calibrated equipment and qualified radiographers. Every scan is interpreted by a qualified radiologist, and reports are accepted by hospital networks, specialists, and insurers across India.
Are there any risks to DEXA SCAN FEMUR?
A standard X-ray uses a very low dose of radiation considered safe for diagnostic use; ultrasound uses sound waves and involves no radiation at all. If you are or might be pregnant, tell the centre in South Extension or Uttam Nagar, Delhi beforehand so the safest approach can be chosen. There is no needle and no recovery time.
Did you know?
The femur reading is also used with clinical tools to estimate 10-year fracture risk.
DEXA SCAN FEMUR Test Preparation in Delhi
Fasting and dietary instructions:
Most imaging scans need no fasting. Some abdominal ultrasounds require a few hours of fasting or a full bladder, so follow the specific instruction shown when you book, or ask the centre.
Medication guidance:
Continue your regular medication unless told otherwise. Tell the centre if you have diabetes, kidney problems, or allergies, especially if a contrast study is planned.
What to bring:
Bring your doctor's referral, a valid photo ID, your insurance card if using cashless OPD, and any previous scans or reports so the radiologist can compare.
Timing:
Book a slot that suits you at an accredited GetVisit centre in Greater Kailash or Preet Vihar, Delhi. Wear loose clothing without metal fasteners, and remove jewellery before the scan.

Why Take a DEXA SCAN FEMUR Test in Delhi ?
When does a doctor order DEXA SCAN FEMUR?
DEXA SCAN FEMUR is part of bone density testing used to screen or monitor osteoporosis and related conditions. Doctors may order it for women after menopause, men over 50 with risk factors, people with low-trauma fractures, long-term steroid use, or signs of bone loss.
Who should get DEXA SCAN FEMUR done in Delhi?
Delhi's 30+ million population, India's most severe urban air pollution, one of the country's highest combined diabetes and cardiovascular disease burdens, extreme seasonal temperature range (from 3°C in January to 48°C in May), and monsoon infection risk across Dwarka, Rohini, Shahdara, and Uttam Nagar make regular preventive diagnostic testing an essential part of health management for all city residents. Those who benefit most from DEXA SCAN FEMUR include patients needing structural assessment that bloodwork cannot provide, and anyone under surveillance for a previously detected abnormality in Delhi.
What can DEXA SCAN FEMUR help detect?
It helps diagnose osteopenia or osteoporosis, track treatment response, and assess fracture risk. Abnormal results can come from aging, hormonal changes, poor diet, low vitamin D or calcium, smoking, alcohol, or certain medications. A family history of fractures or early osteoporosis makes this test more important.
What do DEXA SCAN FEMUR results mean?
Findings are graded from normal to significant, and comparison with any previous scan shows whether a known finding is stable, improving, or progressing. Your doctor explains the report in the context of your symptoms. See the FAQs below for more detail on this scan.
How often should DEXA SCAN FEMUR be repeated?
For preventive screening with a normal baseline: annually for most adults above 35. For monitoring a known condition: at the interval your specialist recommends , typically every 3 to 6 months for active conditions and annually for stable, well-controlled ones.
What happens after DEXA SCAN FEMUR results are ready?
You will be notified the moment results are ready, usually the same day for routine tests. Open the report in the GetVisit app to see each value beside its reference range, share it with your doctor in a tap, or book a specialist consultation to talk it through.
