Ultimate Breast, Bone, and Metabolic Health Screening
The Combined Mammogram and DEXA Whole Body Scan is our most comprehensive wellness package for women. It pairs the cancer-detection power of 3D mammography (with AI) with a medical-grade DEXA body composition scan. This scans your breast health, screens for osteoporosis, and measures deep visceral fat and regional muscle mass.
All assessments are completed in one visit at our Naxxar clinic, with full reports issued on the same day by our consultant radiologists.
3D Mammogram Screen
Early Cancer Detection
We evaluate the breast tissue layers using advanced 3D tomosynthesis:
- Screening for small calcifications or early structural distortions
- Double-safety review with integrated AI detection software
- Comprehensive review of breast tissue health
DEXA Whole Body Scan
Bones & Tissue Composition
We assess bone health and body tissue using low-dose DEXA scanning:
- Bone mineral density (BMD) of the spine, hip, and whole body
- Lean muscle mass and fat mass mapping in each arm, leg, and trunk
- Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT) calculation to assess metabolic risks
Preparation Guidelines
- No Deodorant/Perfumes: Do not apply deodorants, powders, or creams to breasts or underarms, as they can affect X-ray imaging.
- No Calcium Supplements: Do not take calcium supplements on the morning of your scan to ensure accurate spine density readings.
- Clothing: Wear comfortable, loose clothing without metal snaps, buttons, or zippers. A separate top and bottom is recommended.

Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to common questions about Combined Mammogram & DEXA Whole Body Scan.
What does the 'whole body composition' add?
Unlike standard bone density scans that only check the hip and spine, the whole body composition scan maps your entire body's muscle and fat. It quantifies visceral fat (the dangerous fat around organs) and reveals muscle imbalances between limbs.
How safe is the radiation from both tests?
Both tests are highly optimized. The DEXA scanner uses a negligible dose (less than 5 minutes of background radiation). The 3D mammogram is digital and low-dose, complying with strict safety regulations.
Do I need a doctor's referral?
No, women over 40 can self-refer for this wellness package.
