Summarized demographic characteristics of all individuals included in this study as reported in the New Mexico Decedent Image Database. Data depicted as means ± standard deviations. Differences among groups between age, BMI, and time from death to scan were calculated using a Kruskal–Wallis test. All p values are two-tailed, with significance set at 0.05. IWAs individuals with lower-limb amputation, TT transtibial, TF transfemoral, N/A not applicable.
