Overview
The purpose of this study is to examine our ability to take images and measure the amount of muscle, fat and bone in you.
Description
This study explore our ability to repeatable/reproducible assessments of body composition (muscle, fat and bone mass) using dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and bone health measures using both DXA and high-resolution peripheral computed tomography (HR-pQCT).
