Journal Article
Jones, W., Pearson, A., Glassbrook, D., Slater, G., Dodd-Reynolds, C., & Hind, K. (2022). Precision of the GE Lunar total body-less head scan for the measurement of three-compartment body composition in athletes. Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 25, 692-698. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jocd.2022.08.008

Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is widely used for the assessment of lean mass (LM), fat mass (FM) and bone mineral content (BMC). When observing standardised protocols, DXA has a high level of precision for the assessment of total body compos...
