Abstract

Provided are a method and an apparatus for analyzing a body composition by using a medical image. The apparatus for analyzing the body composition trains a first artificial intelligence model by using training data labelling a body tissue region, such as muscle or fat, in a medical image for training, and then, segments a body tissue from an examination medical image by using the first artificial intelligence model and outputs body composition information based on a region, a volume, or a weight of the body tissue of the examination medical image. The disclosure is a technique developed through the Seoul Business Agency's 2020 support project for artificial intelligence (AI) technology industrialization (CY20053), 'AI Verification and Industrialization of Computed Tomography (CT) Image-based Opportunistic Screening of Metabolic Syndrome, Osteoporosis, and Muscle Reduction.'
