Body composition analysis of chickens by dual energy X-ray absorptiometry

Dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) was evaluated as a method for measuring the body composition of growing broiler chickens. A total of 130 chickens, ranging in weight from 400 to 3,290 g, were scanned using a DXA instrument (Lunar DPX-L). Single whole-body scans were acquired and analyzed using...
