Automated shape-independent assessment of the spatial distribution of proton density fat fraction in vertebral bone marrow

This work proposes a method for automatic standardized assessment of bone marrow volume and spatial distribution of the proton density fat fraction (PDFF) in vertebral bodies. Intra- and interindividual variability in size and shape of vertebral bodies is a challenge for comparable interindividual e...
