Question

Do different DEXA body composition machines report different results consistently?

The clinic Bill visits has three DEXA scanners and uses whichever is free, and every report names the one it came from. The question is whether the machine itself shifts what a scan reports — how much fat, lean tissue and bone it finds. Only the period when all three were in use is compared.
