InBody 580 scan in Roseville, MN — the facts
- Price: $45 per scan. A 4-scan pack is $149 — that works out to $37.25 per scan.
- Access: Open to the public. No referral required. No membership required. Book online.
- Device: InBody 580. It measures at multiple frequencies and reports lean mass segmentally — each arm, each leg and the trunk separately — plus intracellular and extracellular water (ECW/TBW) and phase angle. About 30 seconds. No radiation.
- Results on an InBody Touch screen: a large interactive touchscreen in a private room shows your full result the moment the scan ends — you scroll through it yourself. Results also sync to the InBody app.
- Also included at no extra cost: blood-pressure check, grip-strength measurement and height.
- What is measured: skeletal muscle mass, body fat mass and percentage, visceral fat, intracellular and extracellular water (ECW/TBW), segmental lean mass for each arm, leg and trunk, and phase angle.
- Repeat testing: the measurement is electrical rather than radiological, so there is no exposure to accumulate and no limit on how often it can be repeated. That matters, because one body-composition reading is a snapshot — what actually guides decisions is the direction it moves over weeks and months. For the comparison to mean anything, scan under the same conditions each time: same time of day, similar hydration, and before eating or exercising. For progress tracking, repeat scans are often spaced about 4–8 weeks apart, depending on the goal and expected rate of change. Focus on the trend across several scans rather than small differences between two readings.
- Fluid balance and accuracy: BIA estimates can be less reliable when fluid balance is substantially altered, such as with significant edema. Results should be interpreted cautiously and may not be comparable with scans taken under usual fluid conditions.
- If you have an implanted cardiac device: current guidelines advise against bioelectrical impedance testing for anyone with a pacemaker, implantable defibrillator (ICD) or cardiac resynchronisation device. Please tell us before you book and we will talk through your options.
- Where: Rosedale Tower, 1700 West Highway 36, Suite #400, Roseville, MN 55113.
- Private room: the scan and your results review happen alone, not on a gym floor.
What is the InBody 580?
In thirty seconds, it shows you exactly what your weight is made of — muscle, fat, and water, region by region.
The InBody 580 is a multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) device used clinically to measure body composition. It assesses skeletal muscle mass, body fat mass and percentage, intracellular and extracellular water distribution, visceral adipose tissue, segmental lean mass (arms, legs, and trunk separately), and Phase Angle. The InBody 580 uses no radiation (it passes a safe imperceptible electrical current through the body), takes approximately 30 seconds, and can be repeated safely as often as needed for serial monitoring. Open to the public at Twin Cities Metabolism — $45 first scan, no referral required.
More than body composition.
The InBody 580 measures muscle and fat, visceral fat, body-water distribution, phase angle and segmental lean mass. Together, those results provide a broader view of cellular health, hydration and inflammation-related fluid shifts, and balance across the arms, legs and trunk.
Muscle, body fat, visceral fat and lean-mass distribution across the arms, legs and trunk.
Phase angle is a bioimpedance marker commonly used as an indicator of cellular health. It reflects electrical properties influenced by cell membranes, body cell mass and fluid distribution. The result is interpreted against the device’s age- and sex-specific reference range.
ECW/TBW compares extracellular water with total body water. It helps identify fluid-distribution patterns that may accompany inflammation, swelling, edema or other changes in fluid balance. It does not directly measure inflammatory markers or diagnose inflammation.
See how lean mass and body water are distributed across the right arm, left arm, trunk, right leg and left leg—helping identify left-to-right differences and upper-to-lower patterns that a total-body number can hide.
Why an InBody scan is worth trusting
- The same InBody technology used in hospitals, clinics, and research settings.
- Direct segmental, multi-frequency BIA has been compared with DEXA in published validation studies.
- Cited in thousands of peer-reviewed studies (per InBody).
The InBody 580
The scale tells you how much. InBody shows you what it’s made of.
Two people can weigh exactly the same and have very different amounts of muscle, body fat, visceral fat and fluid distribution. That can mean different health risks, nutrition priorities and tracking goals.
Your bathroom scale doesn’t know the difference. The InBody 580 does.
In thirty seconds, you’ll see what your weight is actually made of — by body region:
- Muscle mass — total + symmetry left to right
- Body fat — including visceral fat, the dangerous kind
- Hydration — intracellular vs extracellular water
- Cellular health — via Segmental Phase Angle
- Additional body-composition indices — estimated BMR, SMI and InBody Score
No calipers. No dunk tank. No radiation.
What makes this different from a typical gym scan.
A private room
Your scan happens alone — no waiting room, no crowd, no rushed clinician hovering.
Your results on the InBody Touch
A large interactive touchscreen built into the room. The moment your scan ends, your full result appears — body composition, phase angle, segmental analysis — and you drag through it at your own pace. Your data syncs to the InBody app on your phone — open it anytime to revisit.
A medical clinic, not a gym
If your results reveal something — low muscle, high visceral fat, declining phase angle — you’re already at the right place to do something about it.
Not just body composition
Body composition is one piece. Your $45 visit also includes a blood-pressure check, grip-strength measurement and height. Grip strength is a practical functional measure associated with overall strength, physical function and long-term health outcomes. The scan also provides phase angle as an indicator of cellular health and segmental balance across the arms, legs and trunk.
Honest pricing. No pressure.
$45 makes repeat tracking practical.
InBody uses no ionizing radiation and can be repeated periodically to monitor change. DEXA uses a very small dose of X-ray radiation and is typically used less frequently. The two methods are not interchangeable, so trends are best compared using the same method under similar testing conditions.
Not recommended during pregnancy or for individuals with pacemakers or other implanted electrical devices.
| Option | Price | Per scan |
|---|---|---|
| First scan (new patients) | $45 | — |
| Single repeat scan | $45 | $45 |
| 4-scan pack | $149 | ~$37 |
The 4-scan pack is for patients tracking progress — typically one scan every 4 to 6 weeks.
Want body composition and resting metabolism measured together?
The InBody Scan ($45) is the simplest option if you only want your body-composition numbers and the visual on the Touch screen.
If you want the resting-metabolism side of the baseline — the Breezing Med RMR test that measures resting metabolism (your measured resting calorie burn and resting fuel mix) — the Comprehensive Metabolic Assessment ($195, 40 minutes) combines both measurements in one visit. Dr Jared reads both tests together, and the written report is how you take it home. Either is a great start.
The Comprehensive includes:
- Full InBody body composition scan
- Breezing Med RMR test — measured resting energy expenditure plus RQ, a reading of the relative contribution of fat and carbohydrate at rest.
- Brief clinician walkthrough of the integrated results
- A designed 2–3 page report from our metabolic analysis system — yours to keep, share with your physician, or use as a baseline going forward
Open to the public — you don’t need to be a TCM patient. The InBody Scan and RMR Test are also available individually if you’d rather start there.
Here’s what your visit looks like.
Arrive
5 min early. No food, caffeine, or exercise within 4 hours. No alcohol the day before. No nicotine before the test. Hydrate normally.
Prep
Remove shoes, socks, jewelry on hands/feet. Empty metal from pockets.
Scan
Hold the handles, stand still for 30 seconds. Scan complete.
Review on the InBody Touch
Self-service. Drag, zoom, explore. Data syncs to the InBody app on your phone.
Plan for about 10 minutes. Take longer if you want to explore.
Quick answers.
Do I need to be a patient of the clinic to get a scan?
No — our InBody Scan is open to the public. You don’t need a referral, you don’t need to be a TCM patient, and you don’t need to schedule a consultation first. Just book the scan and come in.
How long until I get my results?
Immediately. Your data appears on the InBody Touch screen the moment the scan finishes — drag through it at your own pace. The data also syncs to the InBody app on your phone within the hour, so you can review it anytime.
How is this different from DEXA?
DEXA uses a very small dose of X-ray radiation and generally takes longer. InBody uses no ionizing radiation and takes about 30 seconds, making it practical for periodic tracking. The two methods use different technologies, so their results should not be treated as interchangeable.
Is it safe? Anyone who shouldn’t use it?
It’s safe for the general public. We don’t scan during pregnancy or patients with pacemakers / other implanted electrical devices.
How accurate is it really?
Direct segmental, multi-frequency BIA has been compared with DEXA in published validation studies. Used in thousands of peer-reviewed studies.
How often should I scan?
For tracking a metabolic program, every 4-6 weeks. For general health monitoring, every 3-6 months. For one-time curiosity, once is enough.
Will someone walk me through the results?
Not as part of the $45 scan. You’ll review your own data on the InBody Touch — it’s designed to be intuitive, with each metric explained on-screen. If you want a clinical interpretation, the Comprehensive Metabolic Assessment ($195) includes a brief analysis with Dr Jared and a written report.
What if my results show a problem?
You’ll see your measurements immediately on the InBody Touch and can sync them to the InBody app. If a result is outside the device reference range or raises questions, the $195 Comprehensive Metabolic Assessment adds an integrated clinician interpretation and a designed 2–3 page report.
