- Advancing precision in physical education and sports science: A review of medical imaging methods for assessing body compositionPublication . Lobo, Manuel; Miravent, Sérgio; Almeida, Rui Pedro de; Garcia, ManuelThis chapter provides an overview of the current state of medical imaging methods in body composition analysis. It advocates a holistic approach that combines the strengths of different approaches and addresses their limitations. We discuss the importance of using standardized protocols to improve the accuracy of body composition studies across populations and settings. By examining the capabilities and limitations of imaging modalities such as DEXA, MRI, CT, and ultrasound, we emphasize the need for a multidimensional approach to obtain body composition emphasis on complete understanding.
