Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, Volume 16, Issue 4, August 2025.ABSTRACT Background There is increasing awareness of a role for muscle composition in sarcopenia and cachexia. Computed tomography (CT)–based measures of muscle density (MusD) are commonly used to indicate composition, with a decrease in MusD reflecting an increase in muscle fat infiltration. The current study explored predictors of MusD acquired using
