Assessment of body composition in Indian adults: comparison between dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry and isotope dilution technique

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and isotope dilution technique have been used as reference methods to validate the estimates of body composition by simple field techniques; however, very few studies have compared these two methods. We compared the estimates of body composition by DXA and isot...
