Descriptive Statistics for BMD Measurments

Lard Layers	Fat (g)	iDXA BMD Measurement (g/cm²)		Percent error
Lard Layers	Fat (g)	Mean	Standard Deviation	Percent error
0	0	2.542	0.013
1	1295	2.729	0.007	7.4%
2	2268	2.803	0.004	10.3%
3	3097	3.063	0.013	20.5%

Note: 1. Mean iDXA BMD Measurements were significantly different from each other (P < 0.001).

2. Percent error = 100(at Layer_i − 2.542)/2.542 for i=1,2,3
