CT analysis of thoracolumbar body composition for estimating whole-body composition

ConclusionsSingle-slice L2 –3 (abdominal CT range) and L1 (chest CT range) analysis best correlated with whole-body composition around 0.90 (coefficient). Multi-slice waist averaging provided a slightly higher correlation of 0.92.
