Artificial intelligence tool to help diagnose muscle loss in older adults
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests a computer program that uses artificial intelligence to help doctors diagnose sarcopenia (a loss of muscle mass and strength) from muscle images. If you are 65 or older and have concerns about your muscle function, you may be able to join and help improve how this condition is detected.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must be 65 years old or older
- You should have reduced muscle function or be at risk for sarcopenia (a condition of low muscle mass and strength)
- You need to be able to take part in rehabilitation training, like exercise or physical therapy
- You must be able to understand the study and give written consent
- You cannot have severe heart, brain, nerve, or muscle conditions that make exercise unsafe
- You cannot have severe cognitive impairment (major memory or thinking problems) or be in another trial that could affect results

This study is testing a new digital system to help diagnose and manage sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss). It aims to make it easier for doctors to track and treat muscle loss, which can improve your strength and quality of life.
This study looks at muscle changes in people with or at risk for sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss). It aims to find better ways to detect and manage sarcopenia using simple tests like muscle strength and body composition measurements.
This trial uses a high-definition surface electromyography (HD-sEMG) device to see if it can help diagnose and track sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss). It may help find better ways to monitor muscle health in people aged 75 and older.
This trial tests whether a muscle-stimulation device (using mild electrical pulses) can help people with sarcopenia (age-related muscle loss) regain strength. You'll also do an exercise program, and the study aims to see if this combination improves mobility and function.
This study tests if a smartphone program can help older adults at risk for muscle loss (sarcopenia) improve their strength and nutrition. You use an app to follow exercise and diet plans at home.
This study uses a high-detail sensor placed on the skin to look for signs of sarcopenia, or age-related muscle loss. The goal is to see whether the scan can help diagnose sarcopenia more accurately.
