Orthopedic imaging approaches were commonly used with some limitations.

Then, the subjects were divided into three groups according to BMD: normal control group, osteopenia group and OP group. The following parameters were recorded for each patient: gender, age, height, body weight, waist circumference, and hip circumference. Further, the fat fraction percentage (FF%) values were determined by 1-H MRS and m-Dixon-Quant methods.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      In both 1-H MRS and magnetic resonance Imaging (MRI) m-Dixon-Quant, the FF% exhibited a negative correlation with BMD (\n                      <jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.05).
