An Interpretation Template Reduces DXA Reporting Errors

Objective: High-quality DXA performance requires excellence in acquisition, analysis and interpretation. However, DXA errors in clinical practice are common and may lead to incorrect clinical decisions. Approaches to improve clinical DXA quality are needed. To this end, we evaluated the effect of implementing a DXA reporting template (adapted from an ISCD model) on DXA error rates at 2 medical centers.
