M. Kiebzak stated that error in BMD on the interpretation of T-score value could be ignored. However, a paper by H. H. Bolotin declared that errors by inhomogeneities in soft tissue by DXA scan findings are unreliable. It explores the size of BMD accuracy error, and analyzes the t...
There is No Need to Re-Enter DXA Data When Reporting April 25, 2021 — Mike Many bone densitometry practices re-enter patient and DXA scan data when creating reports. Accuracy is critical because interpretation is based on this data. Key patient information includes gender, date of birth, and...

To present an updated and evidence-based guideline for the use of dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) to assess body composition in clinical practice. This Official Position was developed by the Scientific Committee of the Brazilian Association of Bon
stated their belief that given a properly calibrated DXA system, other types of accuracy error can be ignored. In contrast, a paper by Bolotin claimed that the errors caused by inhomogeneities in soft tissue composition are so large that they render all DXA scan findings totally unreliable. In ...
Although the effect of precision errors on DXA scan interpretation is widely discussed, the effect of accuracy errors is comparatively neglected. Accuracy errors arise from the inhomgeneous distribution of adipose tissue in the human body and are an unavoidable source of measurement error in DXA ...
This case series presents 3 transgender individuals younger than 50years undergoing gender-affirming hormone therapy (GAHT) who had DXA scores suggestive of osteoporosis. We highlight possible discrepancies in DXA scan interpretations, especially in forearm bone mineral density measurements. We pres...
Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans: an inclusive guide for interpretation and scan analysisTheodorou Stavroula J
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is widely used for measurement of bone mineral density (BMD). In routine clinical practice, a diversity of DXA scan findings that deviate from anticipated anatomical landmarks and require a sophisticated approach to patient positioning and scan analysis may ...
