Abstract:Background
Muscle fat infiltration (MFI) is increasingly recognized as a critical factor influencing muscle function and metabolic health. Accurate quantification of MFI is essential for diagnosing and monitoring various muscular and metabolic disorders. Quantitative Dixon (Q-Dixon) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and high-speed T
