Densitometry - DEXA scan / android and gynoid regions, estimated VAT mass is one of the most advanced and reliable diagnostic methods used for detailed analysis of body composition.

The examination provides the physician with precise and objective information about the distribution of different tissues - fat mass, muscle mass, and bone components - which is essential for assessing the body's metabolic condition, the effectiveness of physical activity, and overall health.

DEXA is especially important when there is a need to determine the distribution of adipose tissue in the android (abdominal) and gynoid (hip and thigh) regions, which plays a significant role in assessing the risk of metabolic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular conditions, and metabolic syndrome.

Particular attention is paid to visceral fat (VAT - visceral adipose tissue) during the examination, which represents fat mass located in the abdominal cavity around internal organs. Its volume assessment is essential, as visceral fat is considered one of the most harmful types and is often associated with chronic inflammatory processes and various systemic diseases.

Information obtained through DEXA is used both in sports medicine and clinical practice to monitor changes in body mass components, analyze health status, and create individualized treatment or rehabilitation plans.
