CT-derived body composition: Differential association with disease, age and inflammation in a retrospective cohort study.
<h4>Background</h4>Low skeletal muscle mass and density, as assessed by CT-body composition (CT-BC), are recognised to have prognostic value in non-cancer and cancer patients. The aim of the present study was to compare CT-BC parameters between non-cancer (abdominal aortic aneurysm, AAA)...
