摘要
Significance: Growing levels of obesity and metabolic syndrome have driven demand for more advanced forms of body composition assessment. While various techniques exist to measure body composition, devices are typically expensive and not portable, involve radiation [in the case of dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry (DXA)], and are limited to analysis of adiposity while metabolic information from blood supply and oxygenation are not considered. Aim: We evaluate whether diffuse optical spectroscopic imaging (DOSI) can be used to predict site-specific adiposity and percent fat (whole body) while simultaneously providing information about local tissue hemoglobin levels and oxygenation. Approach: DOSI measures of tissue composition in gastrocnemius, quadriceps, abdomen, and biceps, DXA whole-body composition, and ultrasound-derived skin and adipose tissue thickness (SATT) in the quadriceps were obtained from 99 individuals aged 7 to 34 years old. Results: Various DOSI-derived parameters were correlated with SATT and an optical method is proposed for estimating SATT using a newly defined parameter, the optical fat fraction (OFF), which considers all parameters that correlate with SATT. Broadband absorption and scattering spectra from study participants with the thinnest (SATT approximate to 0.25 +/- 0.02 cm) and thickest SATT (SATT approximate to 1.55 +/- 0.14 cm), representing best estimates for pure in vivo lean and fatty tissue, respectively, are reported. Finally, a trained prediction model is developed which allows DOSI assessment of OFF to predict DXA body-fat percentage, demonstrating that DOSI can be used to quantify body composition. Conclusions: This study shows that DOSI can be used to assess the adiposity of specific tissues or the entire human body, and the OFF parameter is defined for corroboration and further evaluation in future research.
