Muscle Density, but Not Size, Correlates Well With Muscle Strength and Physical Performance

There is increasing evidence that muscle volume and mass are poor predictors of muscle strength and physical performance. Other assessments of muscle quality such as skeletal muscle density measured by computed tomography (CT) may be more important. The aim of this study was to explore associations...
