AbstractBody composition assessment (ie, the measurement of muscle and adiposity) impacts several cancer-related outcomes including treatment-related toxicities, treatment responses, complications, and prognosis. Traditional modalities for body composition measurement include body mass index, body circumference, skinfold thickness, and bioelectrical...
AbstractData evaluating change in body composition during treatment of advanced cancer are limited. Here we evaluated computed tomography (CT)–based changes in muscle mass during treatment for advanced ovarian cancer (OC) and association with outcomes. We analyzed the preoperative and posttreatment skeletal muscle index (SMI), skeletal muscle area normalized...
