Assessment of body composition in active and controlled acromegaly by bioelectrical impedance analysis and dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry
A high conformity between BIA predictions and DXA scan measurements was observed in patients with acromegaly during both active disease and hormonal control. BIA provides additional important estimations of body water content.
