Bone density (BMD) — strongest evidence:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e DEXA is accepted worldwide as the standard method for measuring BMD and diagnosing osteoporosis; its outputs (T-scores) directly inform clinical decisions about fracture risk and treatment.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2.

Body composition reference:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e In body composition research, DXA is widely used as the reference comparator against which Inbody, BIA, skinfolds, BodPod, and consumer devices are validated; many validation studies show BIA and other methods have wider limits of agreement vs DXA.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e4. Comparisons to CT\/MRI for fat distribution:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e CT\/MRI remain true anatomic reference standards for visceral adipose quantification. DXA provides good whole-body FM and regional measures but systematic reviews highlight limitations when quantifying intra-abdominal adipose tissue (IAAT) vs CT\/MRI. Use DXA as a validated, lower-dose, more accessible reference for most clinical\/research needs, but acknowledge when CT\/MRI are required.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e5. Population and athletic uses:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e For athlete monitoring and clinical populations, DXA’s segmental lean mass and regional fat measures are frequently recommended over simple field tests because they better capture body composition changes.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003eAT DEXA SCAN PARIS (PUTEAUX)\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eYour full-body scan covers lean mass, body-fat distribution by region (arms, legs and trunk), left\/right asymmetry, visceral fat and bone density.
