Association of temporalis muscle thickness and frailty in an Australian memory clinic cohort
Reduced TMT, measured in coronal T1-weighted brain MRI is associated with frailty in this cohort. Future studies incorporating additional measures of sarcopenia (e.g. DXA, dynamometry) to validate the use of TMT in coronal T1-weighted brain MRI are warranted.
