Longitudinal assessment of changes in muscle composition using proton density fat fraction and T2* in patients with and without incidental vertebral compression fractures

ObjectiveChemical shift encoded-based water-fat separation magnetic resonance imaging (CSE-MRI) is an emerging noninvasive tool for the assessment of bone and muscle composition. This study aims to examine both the predictive value and the longitudinal change of proton density fat fraction (PDFF) an...
