The Role of Muscle Density in Predicting the Amputation Risk in Peripheral Arterial Disease: A Tissue Composition Study Using Lower Extremity CT Angiography

The Role of Muscle Density in Predicting the Amputation Risk in Peripheral Arterial Disease: A Tissue Composition Study Using Lower Extremity CT Angiography

<b>Objectives:</b> Peripheral arterial disease (PAD) is a common vascular condition with amputation as a major complication. While muscle volume and vascular severity is often considered in risk prediction, the prognostic value of muscle density remains underexplored. <b>Methods<...
