Results In 124 healthy children, positive correlations between QUS SI and DXA (BMC and BMD) were observed (range= 0.30–0.45, P< 0.01). Results from Lin's CCC test showed almost perfect correlations between BIA and DXA fat free mass (0.96), fat mass (0.92), and substantial correlation for percentage of fat mass (0.75)(P< 0.05). Conclusion Although BIA results were not as accurate as DXA and DXA remains the gold standard method for clinical assessment, BIA can be an alternative method for investigating body composition among …
