What is DEXA Predicts Lamb Carcass Composition about?

The document examines the accuracy of a dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) scanner in predicting the fat and lean composition of lamb carcasses. Over 450 lambs were scanned using DEXA and computed tomography (CT) across different kill groups and genotypes. DEXA predicted fat and lean percentages with high precision compared to CT measurements, though some minor biases were seen for certain groups. DEXA provided more accurate predictions than the current Australian grading method.
