摘要:
Provided are computer-implemented methods of determining tissue composition by polychromatic absorptiometry. The methods include acquiring a raw intensity image of a tissue comprising dense tissue and adipose tissue. The image is generated using a polychromatic electromagnetic radiation source. The methods further include directly measuring the proportion of dense tissue and adipose tissue for each pixel of the raw intensity image and assigning a value to each pixel based on the directly measured proportion of dense tissue and adipose tissue. The composition of the tissue is determined based on the assigned value of each pixel. Systems for practicing the methods are also provided.
