MRI scans of the arm, forearm, thigh, and calf from various APS patients and normal control subjects. A, Axial MRIs through the arm (i–iii), forearm (iv–vi), thigh (vii–ix), and calf (x–xii) of two female APS patients, 200.5 (D136H) and 300.3 (P4R), compared with a normal female subject. Fat loss is generalized in APS 200.5 (D136H) and partial in APS 300.3 (P4R) with relative preservation of medial thigh fat. Bone marrow fat is well preserved. B, Axial MRIs through the arm (i–iii), forearm (iv–vi), thigh (vii–ix), and calf (x–xii) of two male APS patients, 300.4 (P4R) and 800.3 (T10I), compared with a normal male subject. Fat loss is complete and generalized in APS 800.3 (T10I), whereas APS 300.4 (P4R) shows only partial fat loss in the extremities. Bone marrow fat is well preserved.
