Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry derived body composition trajectories across adulthood: Reference values and associations with body roundness index and body mass index
The reference values presented herein may support the interpretation of body composition in public health settings and the identification of people who may benefit from intervention to improve musculoskeletal and metabolic health. The BRI better reflects DXA-derived body composition and may provide screening utility beyond that of the BMI.
