Assessment of Body Composition With Use of Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry: Evaluation and Comparison With Other Methods
Abstract
Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) is a relatively new method of assessing body composition in humans. In the current study, DEXA was analyzed for accuracy and precision by using both anthropomorphic phantoms and a combination of body composition techniques in humans. Satisfactory precision for measurement of total body fat, fat-free mass, and total body bone mineral could be demonstrated in vivo and in vitro. Predictions of lean body mass...
