Bone Density Scan (DEXA, DXA) in LUX KOR Hospital

About the clinic

A Bone Density Scan (DEXA, DXA) at LUX KOR Hospital in Bangkok, Thailand, checks for bone mineral density in the spine and hip. The procedure typically runs around $150 to $200 and follows the international WHO criteria for osteoporosis diagnosis. Patients receive their results on the same day alongside a consultation with an orthopedic specialist.

Examination Details

The diagnostic uses Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DXA), which is the standard method for measuring bone loss. The scan checks the spine and hip, and sometimes the wrist, to provide a T-score. This score helps determine bone health and fracture risks. The process is quick and non-invasive.

  • Procedure duration. The scan takes between 10 and 15 minutes to complete.
  • Results turnaround. Findings are available the same day as the appointment.
  • Specialist review. An orthopedic specialist interprets the scans and explains the data during a consultation.
  • Clinical setting. The test is an outpatient procedure and requires no hospital stay.
  • No preparation. Patients do not need specific dietary or physical preparation before the scan.

Package Options

LUX KOR Hospital offers different levels of bone health screening to meet various needs. A basic two-part screening may cost around $80. A more comprehensive BMD package for the spine and hip is around $200 and includes the specialist consultation. These screenings are recommended for adults over 50, postmenopausal women, and individuals with a family history of osteoporosis.

LUX KOR Hospital is a specialized orthopedic facility in Bangkok. It provides dedicated services for bone health and musculoskeletal conditions. Patients can request an appointment for a bone density scan through Bookimed to confirm availability and receive specific instructions.

I had my knee surgery with Dr. Natthapol Thammachot. It has been 3 months since I had my right knee joint replacement. My condition has improved a lot—I can sit in the cross-legged position and also sit in seiza, and I don’t get any knee pain when walking. Thank you so much, Doctor.

Clean hospital. The staff are friendly, provide good explanations, and I like that the equipment is fully equipped. The price is not expensive. My neck, shoulder, and upper shoulder pain eased immediately. I like this massage.

Clean hospital with polite and friendly staff. Price was good the only issue was it took almost 3 hours for the health checkup and test readings. Besides that everything else was perfect

I’d like to give a full 10 stars—everyone is so nice. All counters, all people are great, really. Especially the nurse who draws blood—she’s a nurse who specializes in chemo, and it really shows. You can tell she was born to be a nurse. But the doctor deserves points deducted. She read the test results in less than 5 minutes, and only looked at the “bad fat.” I mean, what about the “good fat”—is it too low or too high? The doctor said there’s no value to read, which left me confused for a moment. But overall, I really love all the staff, honestly.
