Background & aims Blood volume expanding properties of colloids are superior to crystalloids. In addition to oncotic/osmotic properties, the electrolyte composition of infusions may have important effects on visceral perfusion, with infusions contai...

Computer Tomography-Based Psoas Skeletal Muscle Area and Radiodensity are Poor Sentinels for Whole L3 Skeletal Muscle Values (2019)
Journal Article
Rollins, K. E., Gopinath, A., Awwad, A., Macdonald, I. A., & Lobo, D. N. (2020). Computer Tomography-Based Psoas Skeletal Muscle Area and Radiodensity are Poor Sentinels for Whole L3 Skeletal Muscle Values. Clinical Nutrition, 39(7), 2227-2232. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.clnu.2019.10.003

Background and aims Computed tomography (CT)-based measurement of skeletal muscle cross-sectional area (CSA) and Hounsfield unit (HU) radiodensity are used to assess the presence of sarcopenia and myosteatosis, respectively. The validated CT-based t... Read More about Computer Tomography-Based Psoas Skeletal Muscle Area and Radiodensity are Poor Sentinels for Whole L3 Skeletal Muscle Values.
