Phantoms for Cross-Calibration of Dual Energy X-ray Absorptiometry Measurements in Infants

Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To test the suitability of phantoms to cross-calibrate body composition measurements in small subjects among different dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) instruments. METHODS: A set of four phantoms with total weights 1520g, 3140g, 4650g and 7490g were made with low cost and easily available materials.
