COMPONENTS OF BODY QUALITY: THE ROLE OF RADIOLOGY

Abstract

The aim of the work is to refine the concept of body quality and identify the components of body quality based on medical imaging information technologies. Variant anatomy. Transposition of internal organs. Circle of Willia. Body composition: fat, muscle and bone components of the body. Brown adipose tissue and positron emission tomography. Sarcopenia and musculoskeletal index at the level of the body of the third lumbar vertebra. Pathophysiological mineralization of the body. Heterotopic osification. Prostatoliths, ophthalmoliths, pulmoliths, sialoliths, dentoliths, rhinoliths, calcifications of the coronary arteries, atherosclerotic plaques, calcifications of the diaphragm of the Turkish saddle, basal ganglia, walls of the internal carotid artery and basilar. Endoecology of the human body. Consideration of the negative (perioperative, long-term) consequences of procedures for improving the quality of the body by endoprosthetics of organs. Maxillary post-implantation syndrome. Bone metallosis and bone cement implantation syndrome. Augmentation mammoplasty. Deposition of nano- and macroplastics. Aging is an integral result of changes in the quality of the body and its functioning. Biohacking is practically an activity to improve the quality of the body and its functions. Possible monetization of the concept of body quality is shown on the example of the dentoalveolar system within the framework of voluntary health insurance.
