Two dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) systems--the Hologic QDR-1000 and the Norland XR-26 bone densitometers--were evaluated in terms of precision, accuracy, linearity of response, X-ray exposure, and correlation of in vivo spinal measurements. In vitro precision and accuracy studies were perf
## Abstract The aim of this study was to compare the dualβenergy Xβray absorptiometry (DXA) measurement of bone mass with an independent measure of body calcium obtained by neutron activation analysis (NAA). Total body bone mineral content (BMC) was measured using DXA in 46 subjects in the age rang
