This study aimed to assess the reliability of dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry-derived bone mineral density (BMD) measurements in elite rowers across total body and rib-specific regions of interest (ROIs). It further sought to identify the most ecologically valid rib ROI for detecting sport-specific adaptations in rowers by comparing region-specific BMD patterns across sports with contracting loading patterns (collision sports and lower body endurance). The study comprised three parts: Part A assessed intrarater reliability in 35 rowers via test\u2013retest scans 24\u00a0hr apart; Part B evaluated interrater reliability between trained technicians in 35 nonathletes; and Part C compared rib BMD patterns across 60 elite athletes of different sport types (rowing\u2009=\u2009mechanical strain, rugby\u2009=\u2009collision, and endurance track athletes\u2009=\u2009no loading). Four rib ROIs were analyzed: standard, mod-standard, supraclavicular, and subclavicular. Reliability was determined using coefficient of variation (CV%), typical error of measurement, and intraclass correlation coefficients. Rib ROIs demonstrated excellent intrarater reliability (CV%: 0.78%\u20132.00%; intraclass correlation coefficients: .963\u2013.995) and minimal interrater error (CV%: 0.34%\u20130.50%). Cross-sectional comparisons showed that female rowers and rugby players exhibited similar rib-to-total-body BMD patterns, as did male rowers and track athletes (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&gt;\u2009.05). Notably, rowers displayed significantly lower relative subclavicular rib BMD compared with rugby players (\n                    <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009&lt;\u2009.05). Rib BMD is reliably measurable across technicians in high-performance settings. The subclavicular ROI may be best suited for monitoring rib BMD in rowers, but further investigation is required.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1123\/ijsnem.2026-0012","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,7,7]],"date-time":"2026-07-07T13:52:03Z","timestamp":1783432323000},"page":"512-522","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Dual-Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry Measurements Are Sufficiently Reliable for Assessing Rib Bone Mineral Density in Rowers and Optimizing Region-Specific Analysis"],"prefix":"10.1123","volume":"36","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0005-3251-6778","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Alexander E.","family":"Rossi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Human Sciences (Sport and Exercise Sciences), University of Western Australia, Crawley, WA, Australia"},{"name":"Western Australian Institute of Sport, Mt Claremont, WA, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-7718-611X","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Bronwen","family":"Lundy","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Rowing Australia, Yarralumla, ACT, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3895-0015","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Peter","family":"Peeling","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Human Sciences (Sport and Exercise Sciences), University of Western Australia, Crawley, WA, Australia"},{"name":"Western Australian Institute of Sport, Mt Claremont, WA, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2679-4342","authenticated-orcid":true,"given":"Grant J.","family":"Landers","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Human Sciences (Sport and Exercise Sciences), University of Western Australia, Crawley, WA, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Martyn J.","family":"Binnie","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Human Sciences (Sport and Exercise Sciences), University of Western Australia, Crawley, WA, Australia"},{"name":"Western Australian Institute of Sport, Mt Claremont, WA, Australia"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"100","reference":[{"issue":"11","key":"r1","series-title":"Biomedicines,","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3390\/biomedicines11112982","article-title":"Peak bone mass formation: Modern view of the problem","volume":"11","author":"Akhiiarova, K.","year":"2023","unstructured":"Akhiiarova, K., Khusainova, R., Minniakhmetov, I., Mokrysheva, N., & Tyurin, A.
