PERSONALIZED HEALTHCARE: EXPERIENCE BODY COMPOSITION ANALYSIS AT AIH WITH DEXA TECHNOLOGY

PERSONALIZED HEALTHCARE: EXPERIENCE BODY COMPOSITION ANALYSIS AT AIH WITH DEXA TECHNOLOGY

07/05/2026

With the trend toward personalized healthcare, understanding the body at a granular level is no longer just an option; it has become the foundation for effective prevention and treatment. Familiar readings such as weight or BMI are no longer sufficient to comprehensively reflect an individual's health status. Instead, factors such as visceral fat percentage, bone density, and muscle mass have emerged as critical biomarkers, enabling the early prediction of risks for conditions like obesity, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, and sarcopenia.

To meet this demand, Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) is considered one of the significant advancements in modern medicine. Beyond merely measuring bone mineral density, DEXA allows for a detailed analysis of body composition with high precision, thereby assisting physicians in conducting comprehensive assessments and stratifying pathological risks for each individual.

At the American International Hospital (AIH), DEXA technology is not merely a diagnostic tool but also a part of a strategy to apply high technology to personalized healthcare. Through the Medix DR DEXA system (France), AIH provides the capability to “decode” the body across various in-depth aspects:

  • Precisely determining total body fat percentage, particularly visceral fat - a primary risk factor for cardiovascular and metabolic diseases.

  • Assessing nutritional status to detect malnutrition or imbalances in body composition at an early stage.

  • Monitoring body changes across various life stages: from development in children to the aging process in older adults.

  • Clarify cases where BMI is normal but there is still a latent risk due to high visceral fat.

  • Early detection of osteoporosis, even in asymptomatic stages, with detailed data at fracture-prone sites such as the spine, femoral neck, and wrist.

In particular, DEXA provides sharp imaging in a short amount of time due to the application of a 2D Fan Beam with a modern sensor system. The procedure is rapid, lasting only about 10–15 minutes, is completely non-invasive, and utilizes low-energy X-rays, allowing for periodic repetition to monitor health without cumulative effects.

Each measurement result will undergo in-depth analysis by our team of specialists, who will provide a comprehensive assessment and develop an appropriate intervention plan - ranging from nutritional adjustments and exercise regimens to the monitoring and treatment of medical conditions - thereby providing a holistic and personalized healthcare solution for every individual.
