New study in EJSS! 2 weeks of bed rest causes ~5% leg muscle loss in healthy adults. DXA, CT & MRI detect similar decline. MRI-based automated analysis offers a fast, reliable alternative to manual muscle quantification. 🔗 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/… #musclehealth #MRI #research

Quantifying Leg Muscle Disuse Atrophy During Bed Rest Using DXA, CT, and MRI

This study evaluated whether dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA), computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) provide comparable outcomes in quantifying disuse-induced skeletal...
