Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) Quantitative assessment of muscle mass is important for the early detection of age-related diseases such as sarcopenia; however, CT and MRI are not suitable for large-scale screening because of radiation exposure and cost. In this study, we propose a method for estimating internal musculoskeletal structures from three-dimensional body surface scan data that can be acquired noninvasively and within a short time. First, a statistical shape model integrating body surface and musculoskeletal geometries was constructed from lower-limb CT images. Next, for the lower-limb region extracted from whole-body surface scan data, the shape weights were optimized using only the body surface data and the principal component vectors corresponding to the surface, enabling reconstruction of the body surface shape while simultaneously estimating the musculoskeletal structure. Experimental results showed that estimated shapes were similar among subjects with similar physiques, whereas corresponding differences were observed among subjects with large physique differences, indicating that the proposed method can reflect physique-dependent morphological variations to a certain extent.
