Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry
diagnostic test for bone mineral density testing
Would dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry be useful if performed on a crab?
Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry is typically used to diagnose and follow osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is a disease in which bone weakening increases the risk of a broken bone. Crabs are invertebrates. Invertebrates do not have bones.
What condition is diagnosed with dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry? What body parts are affected by #1? Do crabs have #2?
