Contribution of Intramyocellular Lipids to Decreased Computed Tomography Muscle Density With Age

Skeletal muscle density, as determined by computed tomography (CT), has been shown to decline with age, resulting in increased frailty and morbidity. However, the mechanism underlying this decrease in muscle density remains elusive. We sought to investigate the role of intramyocellular lipid (IMCL)...
