Relating to the measurement of absorption, or performed using an absorptiometer.
From absorptiometer + -ic (adjective-forming suffix). The -ic suffix comes from Latin and Greek, commonly attached to scientific instrument names to form technical adjectives.
Absorptiometric analysis revolutionized medical diagnostics—bone density scans (DEXA scans) use absorptiometric principles to measure how much X-ray radiation bones absorb, helping doctors detect osteoporosis early.
