## Abstract Dual energy xβray absorptiometry is a technique advocated for the measurement of bone mass throughout the skeleton, and recently it has been used to measure changes in periprosthetic bone mass after joint replacement. The accuracy and precision of the method in clinical patient populati

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
## Abstract We studied bone mineral status using dualβenergy Xβray absorptiometry (DXA) on 150 singleton newborn infants with birth weights 1002β3990 g and gestational ages (GA) 27β42 weeks. Eightyβfive infants were preterm (<38 weeks), and 79 infants were low birth weight (β€2500 g). In addition, w
