Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA) has been recently developed not only to assess total body and regional bone mineral density, but also to measure body composition. It is able to assess bone mineral content (BMC) and body fat mass (FM). Three different DEXA instruments have been developed using the same principle, in comparing the ratio of the attenuation of two low-energy X-rays, to assess these body composition components.
