Objective: Muscle triglyceride can be assessed in vivo using computed tomography (CT)
and 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), two techniques that are based on entirely …

The purpose of this investigation was to validate that in vivo measurement of skeletal muscle
attenuation (MA) with computed tomography (CT) is associated with muscle lipid content …

Background Skeletal muscle lipid is associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes and may be
altered by diet, physical activity, and weight loss. Objective We explored the utility of …

Triglyceride accumulation within skeletal muscle has received considerable interest due to
its potential role in insulin resistance and fatty acid metabolism of obesity, aging and type 2 …

Purpose To assess the muscular lipid content (LC) in different muscle groups of the lower
leg by a magnetic resonance imaging technique working with chemical shift selective …

Background Muscle triglycerides are important as a source of energy and in relation to
metabolic sensitivity. However, the classic biopsy method does not distinguish intra-from …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to assess relationships between intramuscular
adipose tissue (IntraMAT) content determined by MRI and intramyocellular lipids (IMCL) and …

OBJECTIVES: The objectives of this study were to develop protocols that measure
abdominal fat and calf muscle lipids with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and magnetic …

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (1 H MRS) and imaging (MRI) were used to investigate
the effects of a bout of moderate prolonged exercise on intra (IMCL)-and extramyocellular …

Background/objectives Thigh muscle attenuation measured by computed tomography (CT)
has been shown to be a reliable and useful index of skeletal muscle fat infiltration. Thigh …
