The Nutrition Focused Physical Examine (NFPE) is a tool, primarily used by Registered Dietitian Nutritionists (RDNs), to assess subcutaneous fat and muscle stores to aid in the diagnosis of malnutrition. The overall goal of this study is to compare and contrast muscle assessment from the NFPE to skeletal muscle index (SMI) measured by CT imaging.
