DEXA Scan & RMR Test in Biloxi, MS: common questions
How much does a DEXA scan & RMR test cost in Biloxi?
A DEXA scan & RMR test at Magnolia Aesthetics and Wellness in Biloxi, MS costs $350 when you book on DEXASCAN.COM. That is the full self-pay price. No insurance is needed, and the test is HSA/FSA eligible: pay with your HSA/FSA card or submit your receipt for reimbursement.
Do I need a doctor's referral?
No. You book and pay directly on DEXASCAN.COM and choose two preferred appointment times. Your requests are sent to Magnolia Aesthetics and Wellness at purchase, and your appointment instructions are emailed to you afterward. Times are not guaranteed; if neither is available, your appointment can be moved to another DEXASCAN.COM location nearby.
How long does it take and how do I prepare?
Plan on about 30–40 minutes for both tests. For the DEXA scan, wear comfortable clothes with no metal (zippers, underwire, jewelry), stay normally hydrated, and skip a big meal or hard workout for 2–3 hours beforehand. For the RMR test, arrive fasted for 4 hours, avoid caffeine and exercise that morning, and sit quietly for a few minutes before testing.
What will my results show?
You get a report covering body fat percentage, lean muscle mass, visceral (belly) fat, regional fat distribution and bone density, plus your resting metabolic rate (calories burned at rest), broken down by arms, legs and trunk. Most people repeat the test every 8–12 weeks to track progress.
Is a DEXA scan safe?
Yes. A body composition DEXA scan uses a very low X-ray dose, roughly equal to a few hours of natural background radiation. It is not recommended during pregnancy.

THE DEXA SCAN
A DEXA SCAN (DXA or Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) is the GOLD STANDARD for body composition analysis. This non-invasive, clinically trusted technology measures lean muscle, fat distribution, and bone health, helping you track progress, prevent osteoporosis, and optimize your fitness and wellness plans. Ideal for athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and anyone focused on health, DEXA provides accurate, actionable insights to make informed decisions about diet, exercise, and overall health.
Key Benefits:
BONE DENSITY (BMD) - Essential to detect Osteoporosis and help prevent Bone Fractures.
MUSCLE MASS - Data to show measurements by percentage and weight.
BODY FAT PERCENTAGE - Body fat distribution by region (arms, legs, waist and hips) Most providers also include Visceral Fat (VAT) the leading predictor of heart disease and type 2 diabetes.
Key evidence supporting “gold standard” claims:
1. Bone density (BMD) — strongest evidence: DEXA is accepted worldwide as the standard method for measuring BMD and diagnosing osteoporosis; its outputs (T-scores) directly inform clinical decisions about fracture risk and treatment.
2. Precision and reproducibility: Multiple methodological papers and reviews document low measurement error and good inter/intra-scanner precision for BMD; these properties make DEXA ideal for longitudinal monitoring.
3. Body composition reference: In body composition research, DXA is widely used as the reference comparator against which Inbody, BIA, skinfolds, BodPod, and consumer devices are validated; many validation studies show BIA and other methods have wider limits of agreement vs DXA.
4. Comparisons to CT/MRI for fat distribution: CT/MRI remain true anatomic reference standards for visceral adipose quantification. DXA provides good whole-body FM and regional measures but systematic reviews highlight limitations when quantifying intra-abdominal adipose tissue (IAAT) vs CT/MRI. Use DXA as a validated, lower-dose, more accessible reference for most clinical/research needs, but acknowledge when CT/MRI are required.
5. Population and athletic uses: For athlete monitoring and clinical populations, DXA’s segmental lean mass and regional fat measures are frequently recommended over simple field tests because they better capture body composition changes.
The RMR (Resting Metabolic Rate) TEST
The Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) Test uses state-of-the-art technology to measure the number of calories your body needs at rest to survive. This type of metabolic testing will outline your Total Energy Expenditure (TEE) and provide a guideline on the amount of calories needed daily to maintain weight, lose weight or gain weight. Metabolic testing is a type of health assessment that measures how your body converts food (calories) into energy. It evaluates your metabolism, specifically, how efficiently your body uses oxygen and burns calories at rest or during activity (referred to as VO2 Max / AMR test)
