Abstract
- This chapter outlines the methods and applications of X-ray computed tomography (CT) imaging to analyze soft tissue and skeletal muscle density and volume in the context of modern challenges in the field of translational myology. The approaches described here use medical imaging processing techniques and computational methods to quantify muscle morphology, illustrate changes with 3D models, develop numerical profiles specific for each individual, and assess muscle changes due to targeted medical treatment.
