Statistical models to assess leg muscle mass in ambulatory children with spastic cerebral palsy using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a movement disorder associated with small and weak muscles. Methods that accurately assess muscle mass in children with CP are scarce. The purpose of this study was to determine whether dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) accurately estimates midleg muscle mass in ambulator...
