Association between quantitative CT-derived body composition and lung low-attenuation area percentage: discrimination of high LAA% burden
Frontiers in Medicine
Abstract
Objective To investigate the associations between quantitative CT (QCT)-derived body composition parameters and CT-derived low-attenuation area percentage (LAA%), and to evaluate their ability to discriminate participants with high LAA% burden.
- Low-attenuation area percentage
- Pectoralis major muscle area
- Pectoralis major muscle density
- Pectoralis major muscle fat infiltration rate
- Pectoralis major muscle index
- Humans
