Abstract

BACKGROUND: There is increasing evidence that myosteatosis, which is currently not assessed in clinical routine, plays an important role in risk estimation in individuals with impaired glucose metabolism, as it is associated with the progression of insulin resistance. With advances in artificial intelligence, automated and accurate algorithms have become feasible to fill this gap.
