| dc.description.resumo | Purpose of review: This article will discuss different muscle mass assessment methods and emphasize their highlights. Recent findings: Several measurement techniques can be used to evaluate muscle mass, recognized as important prognostic markers for adverse functional and clinical outcomes. Choosing the best method depends on the knowledge regarding their theoretical and practical limitations and the purpose of the assessment. Image techniques are considered the gold standards, with good accuracy and precision, but not always available in clinical settings. A new biological technique, the D3-creatinine dilution, can provide not only direct information about muscle mass but also shows a strong association with physical function. With the advancement of the use of the computed tomography (CT) images to assess skeletal muscle mass, mainly in patients with cancer, the assessment of skeletal muscle radiodensity (SMD), as a marker of muscle quality, may provide additional information regarding the association between muscle composition, muscle function and prognosis. Additional muscle function assessment can improve the risk prediction in several clinical situations. Summary: The use of the best tool for the muscle mass assessment should be performed carefully among the various methodologies, according to their characteristics and clinical situation | pt_BR |
