Morning all

A quick question........does anyone know if the dexa scan will show things like arthritis as well as checking bone density?

Thanks

Interesting question as it is a type of X-Ray after all. However it's a dexa scan so any arthritis might not get reported.

It's also worth noting that rheumatoid arthritis is another auto-immune disease, and they often come as a bunch.
