Hi, a dexa scan is definitely not enclosed and you should have plenty of room. Best wishes for tomorrow. 

hi sarah thank you so much for your help its just that ive got a real fear of hospitals and esp mris so thanks for your help. david x

Great trick...before you even start, have them put a washcloth over your eyes and it keeps you from even looking. I do it at every MRI. Works like a charm.
