Today on the NBC Today Show, Matt Lauer demonstrated how you can take care of yourself with a full body scan – on the
GE Lunar iDXA system.
The scan takes about 7 minutes, uses low-dose radiation, and provides a wealth of information. They did a Total Body Scan, Body Composition, and CoreScan. The doctor explained that the short exam identifies your individual body type, how each person is built, and precisely where muscle, bone, and fat are located. Most importantly the fat closest to the vital organs. This type of fat, subcutaneous fat and visceral fat, can cover and obstruct the major vital organs. The incredibly sensitive scan can show where the fat is being distributed throughout the body, and detect indicators of serious conditions such as high blood pressure, diabetes, and heart disease.
