Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans accurately predict differing body fat content in live sheep

BACKGROUND: There is considerable interest in implementing mobile scanning technology for on-farm body composition analysis on live animals. These experiments evaluated the use of dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) as an accurate method of total body fat measurement in live sheep. RESULTS: In Ex...
