• Quantifying muscle mass, muscle fat content
• Determining optimal site to detect early OA changes in subchondral bone of human femoro-patellar joint, relate to bone and muscle parameters and interventions
• Animal studies of differences in tissue composition and bone changes after brief, moderate early-life exercise.
