Repeat spine and femur measurements (5 per case) were done on 19 subjects with the DPX-L densitometer operating at 3 mA giving a radiation flux fourfold higher than the earlier DPX model. The precision for spine bone mineral density (BMD) was about 0.55% (L2-L4) and 0.48% (L1-L4) for 2-minute scans

Reproducibility of lateral spine dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (LAT DEXA) scans using a Lunar DPX-L scanner was assessed in a cadaveric phantom and in patients. One hundred phantom measurements over 7 months demonstrated a longitudinal stability of 1.7% (coefficient of variation, CV). Additional
