Sample Scans

Summary

This page provides patient identification, scan date and the lean, fat and bone tissue in metric and "old school". It references the health of your percent fat and displays limb muscle symmetry.

Metabolic rate estimate

This page estimates your resting metabolic rate and also under various levels of activity using the Katch-McArdle formula. calories can be split into any macro-nutient ratio you desire, including ketogenic, zone and paleo ratios.

Whole body bone mineral density

This is the bone mineral assessment page. Whole body bone mass is an important screening tool for low bone density. Follow-up scans allow for tracking the improvement over time.

Whole body lean and fat composition

This page shows the breakdown in grams of lean and fat mass in the arms legs and torso. It also contains reference data allowing comparison with the average values for your age.

ACSM body fat standards

The American College of Sports Medicine has produced reference ranges that allow us to screen for disease risk and optimize sport performance.

Bone density of the lumbar spine

This page provides the raw data for the bone density measurement of the top four lumbar vertibrae. It also compares the bone density result with that of the population in the colored graph. This information is used to assess fracture risk and response to exercise and other lifestyle changes.

Bone density of the hip

This page provides the raw data for the bone density measurement of the proximal femur and hip region. It also compares the bone density result with that of the population in the colored graph. This information is used to assess fracture risk and response to exercise and other lifestyle changes.

Instant Vertebral Assessment (IVA)

The IVA scan allows for a quick and low radiation exposure assessment of the vertebral structure of the lower back. It's possible to have unknown compression fractures even with a normal BMD measurement. When IVA results are compared with bone density values, 20% of women classified as normal or osteopenic had at least one vertebral fracture. This service is only available at Bodycomp Imaging Vancouver.
