Body composition has been linked with clinical and prognostic outcomes in patients cancer cardiovascular diseases. analysis lung screening (LCS) is very limited. This study aimed at assessing the association of subcutaneous fat volume (SFV) density (SFD), measured on chest ultra-low dose computed tomography (ultra-LDCT) images by a fully automated artificial intelligence (AI)-based software, anthropometric characteristics LCS population.
