Abstract

Cancer cachexia (i.e., skeletal muscle wasting with or without fat loss) relates to several adverse outcomes. Computed tomography (CT) cross-sectional images serve as an efficient biomarker for assessment of cachexia in cancer patients. We systematically reviewed literature reporting quantitative evaluation of the cross sectional area of the main tissues implicated in cancer cachexia, muscle and visceral, subcutaneous and inter-muscular fat in CT scans at the 3rd lumbar vertebra. Our main goal was to summarize CT-defined variation of muscle and fat and the relationship between these features and cancer outcomes such as chemotherapy toxicity, post-surgery complications and survival.

Cachexia & Brown Fat

Cachexia is a condition associated with progressive weight loss due to severe illness. In cancer patients, it is proposed to occur as a result of tumor-induced energy wasting. Several proteins have been implicated in browning and depletion of white adipose tissue. Here is the latest research on cachexia and brown fat.

Cancer Metabolism

In order for cancer cells to maintain rapid, uncontrolled cell proliferation, they must acquire a source of energy. Cancer cells acquire metabolic energy from their surrounding environment and utilize the host cell nutrients to do so. Here is the latest research on cancer metabolism.

Cancer Imaging

Imaging techniques, including CT and MR, have become essential to tumor detection, diagnosis, and monitoring. Here is the latest research on cancer imaging.

Cardiac Cachexia

Cardiac cachexia is a syndrome associated with the progressive loss of muscle and fat mass. It most commonly affects patients with heart failure and can significantly decrease the quality of life and survival in these patients. Here is the latest research on cardiac cachexia.
