| Abstract | The purpose of this study was to establish a new pharmacokinetic model to investigate bone marrow and muscle perfusion without using arterial input function. Based on the reference region model, erector spinae muscle around the vertebral body was selected as the reference region. A muscle-based model was established for erector spinae muscle perfusion with a personalized algorithm. Seventy-six female subjects (age 72.5±3.4 yrs) were recruited in this study and classified into three groups (normal, osteopenia, and osteoporosis) according to the T-score. Bone mineral density was measured by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry. Quantitative parameters were extracted from the pharmacokinetic model, $K^{trans,TOI}$ (contrast agent extravasation rate constants for blood perfusion of the tissue of interest) showed a significant reduction in subjects with lower bone mineral density, which were consistent with previous studies. However, muscle perfusion parameters remained unchanged among different groups. The results indicated that muscle-based model was stable for bone marrow perfusion modeling. Meanwhile, the maintained muscle perfusion indicated that the decreased perfusion in the bone marrow happened in the bone itself but not in the supply arteries. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
