Reliable and robust method for abdominal muscle mass quantification using CT/MRI: An explorative study in healthy subjects

Abstract

TAMA is a better biomarker than TPA in terms of inter-scan and inter-reader agreement and robustness to the measurement level. CT was a more reliable imaging modality than MRI. Our results support the use of TAMA measured by CT as a standard biomarker for abdominal muscle area measurement.
