Whole-body diffusion weighted MR and FDG-PET/CT in Hodgkin lymphoma: predictive role before treatment and early assessment aftrer two courses of chemotheraphy
To evaluate whether whole-body MR has a predictive role before treatment and may asses the response after two courses of chemotherapy in comparison to FDG-PET/CT
Supplementary Material for: Appendicular Muscle Mass, Thigh Intermuscular Fat Infiltration, and Risk of Fall in Postmenopausal Osteoporotic Elder Women
Background: The association between the quantity and composition of skeletal muscle and the decline in physical function in elderly is poorly understood. Therefore, the primary aim of this cross-over study was to investigate the association between thigh intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) infiltration, appendicular muscle mass, and risk of fall in postmenopausal osteoporotic elder women. Second, we examined the differences in muscle mass, IMAT, and risk of fall in the same sample of older subjects after being classified as sarcopenic or nonsarcopenic on the basis of the dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-based Appendicular Skeletal Muscle Mass Index (ASMMI). Methods: Twenty-nine subjec…
