The muscular dystrophies are rare orphan diseases, characterized by progressive muscle
weakness: the most common and well known is Duchenne muscular dystrophy which affects …

Background Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the dominant 3D imaging modality to
quantify muscle properties in skeletal muscle disorders, in inherited and acquired muscle …

Objectives To assess the effects of bimagrumab on skeletal muscle mass and function in
older adults with sarcopenia and mobility limitations. Design A 24‐week, randomized …

Object detection systems based on the deep convolutional neural network (CNN) have
recently made ground-breaking advances on several object detection benchmarks. While …

Introduction Quantitative and accurate measurements of fat and muscle in the body are
important for prevention and diagnosis of diseases related to obesity and muscle …

Rationale: Bimagrumab is a fully human monoclonal antibody that blocks the activin type II
receptors, preventing the activity of myostatin and other negative skeletal muscle regulators …

Computed Tomography (CT) allows detailed studies of body composition and its association
with metabolic and cardiovascular disease. The purpose of this work was to develop and …

Purpose: To show the feasibility of assessing the spatial distribution of skeletal muscle
adipose tissue using chemical shift‐based water/fat separation and to characterize …

In this brief review, introductory concepts in animal and human adipose tissue segmentation
using proton magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and computed tomography are …

CS imaging can reliably measure muscle and fat distribution and uniquely discriminate
between intra-abdominal organ and muscle component of fat-free mass. It precisely tracks …
