Validity of Slaughter Equations and Bioelectrical Impedance Against Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry in Children.

At the group level, Slg-Eq provides a more valid estimation of BFP and FMI than BIA. At the individual level, Slg-Eq shows larger estimation errors. The validity of these methods might differ in sex and weight status. Nevertheless, both methods seem to be valid for monitoring changes in adiposity.
