Cardiopulmonary exercise testing (CPET or CPEX), also referred to as a VO2 (oxygen consumption) test, is a specialized type of stress test or exercise test that measures your exercise ability. Information about the heart and lungs is collected to understand if the body’s response to exercise is normal or abnormal.

A VO2 max test is a maximal exercise test performed on a treadmill or bike while connected to a machine capable of analyzing your expired air. Your test provides data on how much oxygen you use as you exercise and determines the maximal oxygen you can consume during exercise. This is a gold-standard measurement of endurance.

Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) are noninvasive tests that show how well the lungs are working. The tests measure lung volume, capacity, rates of flow, and gas exchange. This information can help your healthcare provider diagnose and decide the treatment of certain lung disorders.

A DEXA Body Scan (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) is a highly accurate imaging test used to measure body composition, including bone density, muscle mass, and body fat percentage. This non-invasive scan provides detailed insights into overall health, fitness progress, and risk factors for osteoporosis. Ideal for athletes, fitness enthusiasts, and individuals monitoring their health, a DEXA scan helps track changes over time and tailor nutrition or exercise plans for optimal results. If you want precise data about your body’s composition, a DEXA Body Scan is the gold standard in health assessment.
