Abstract
Radiological sarcopenia (CT-assessed PM:L3) is a significant predictor of mortality in EL patients in Australia. The results of this study suggest that radiological sarcopenia is equivalent to established risk assessment tools. The more timely and easily accessible CT-assessed PM:L3 metric is potentially automatable and may have significant utility in clinical practice.
