Comparison Between Single‐ and Multi‐slice Computed Tomography Body Composition Analysis in Patients With Oesophagogastric Cancer
Single-slice and multi-slice CT assessments provide highly correlated tissue measurements amongst patients with OG cancer. Associations between these measurements and overall survival were also comparable across both types of body composition analysis. Agreement between single- and multi-slice measurements of adiposity is worse in patients with obesity, suggesting single-slice analyses may less accurately reflect the quantity or distribution of adipose tissue in this patient group.
