Arm anthropometry is used as a proxy measure of body composition (e.g. muscularity, fat free mass and fat mass) by assessing the shape of the upper arm in both clinical and field settings. Arm anthropometry includes: Triceps skinfold (TSF). These measurements are used to derive the following indices of body composition:
- Simple Measures - Skinfolds
D = predicted density of the body (g/ml), and L = log of the...

15 Φεβ 2014 · With body surface measurements, anthropometry provides a skeletal muscle mass estimate at the tissue-organ level that includes skeletal muscle fibers, nerves, blood vessels, progenitor cells, connective tissue, tendons, intermuscular adipose tissue, and even in some cases bone.
1 Φεβ 2022 · Muscle volume (MV) and anatomical cross-sectional area (CSA) are used as measures of muscle-size, but determining these from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a very time-consuming process.
1 Ιαν 2019 · Skeletal muscle mass can be divided into trunk and appendicular (arms and legs) musculature. The appendicular lean soft tissue, a marker of SM mass (ASM), can be calculated as the sum of the non-bone and non-FM of the four limbs from a DEXA scan, and corrected for height (ASM×height −2).
22 Ιαν 2021 · Physiological cross-sectional area (PCSA), an important biomechanical variable, is an estimate of a muscle’s contractile force potential and is derived from dividing muscle mass by the...
18 Σεπ 2024 · As a measure of force production per given muscle volume, PMA captures the impact of muscle design, in terms of a range of fibre architectures and belly shapes, on its mechanical output, and thus the functional implications of design across scales.
18 Νοε 2021 · This review will focus on muscle deterioration with ageing and highlight the two underpinning mechanisms regulating declines in muscle mass and function: muscle fibre atrophy and muscle fibre loss (hypoplasia) – and their measurement.
