L1 M1 of LDCT for Low Muscle Mass Measurement

September 7, 2020 updated by: Far Eastern Memorial Hospital

Evaluation of Low Muscle Mass by Muscle Surface Index of First Lumbar Vertebrae Using Low Dose Computed Tomography

The first lumbar spine muscle index (L1 MI) on computed tomography (CT) obtained by measuring muscle surface at the first lumbar vertebrae (L1) level is an indicator of total skeletal mass in specific populations. Nevertheless, the utility of L1 MI derived from low dose chest CT (LDCT) in health assessments and relevant cutoff points are unclear.
