Article Synopsis
- Reliable pQCT assessment is crucial for accurately tracking changes in bone and muscle quality over time, but its reliability across different days and age groups hasn't been fully explored.
- *The study involved 72-86 participants (both men and women) aged 18-85, who completed two days of pQCT testing to measure the accuracy of bone, muscle area, and fat metrics.
- *Most measurements showed good to excellent reliability, but muscle density showed poorer reliability in certain areas, with older adults experiencing increased biological error, particularly in forearm muscle density.
