Appendicular skeletal muscle mass: measurement by dual-photon absorptiometry.
American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 1990 Dual-photon absorptiometry (DPA) allows separation of body mass into bone mineral, fat, and fat-free soft tissue. This report evaluates the potential of DPA to isolate appendages of human subjects and to quantify extremity skeletal muscle mass (limb fat ...

CHANGES IN BONE MINERAL DENSITY AFTER TOTAL KNEE ARTHROPLASTY [PDF]
Acta Ortopédica Brasileira, 2020 Objective: We aimed to investigate the change in bone mineral density (BMD) in the first postoperative year in patients that underwent total knee arthroplasty (TKA) due to primary osteoarthritis of the knee.

Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2009 CONTEXT GH and IGF-I are nitrogen retaining and anabolic, but the impact of long-term exposure to supraphysiological GH and IGF-I, either from endogenous overproduction in acromegaly or exogenous sources, on skeletal muscle (SM) mass is not clear ...

Unsupervised foreign object detection based on dual-energy absorptiometry in the food industry [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 X-ray imaging is a widely used technique for non-destructive inspection of agricultural food products. One application of X-ray imaging is the autonomous, in-line detection of foreign objects in food samples. Examples of such inclusions are bone fragments in meat products, plastic and metal debris in fish, fruit infestations.

Self-Supervised Multi-Modal Alignment for Whole Body Medical Imaging [PDF]
arXiv, 2021 This paper explores the use of self-supervised deep learning in medical imaging in cases where two scan modalities are available for the same subject. Specifically, we use a large publicly-available dataset of over 20,000 subjects from the UK Biobank with both whole body Dixon technique magnetic resonance (MR) scans and also dual-energy x-ray ...
