Dual energy X‐ray absorptiometry: gold standard for muscle mass?
Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2018 Since the late 90s, dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) has been validated against so-called gold standards for body composition (BC) by comparison to chemical analysis, dissection, and anatomy-based imaging methods (CT or MRI).
