Fig. 2

Box plot showing the calculated CM dose (mL/kg) for each CM strategy by body composition. Plot shows the mean ± standard deviation, the minimum and maximum values. The box represents 25th and 75th percentile values, and the whiskers indicate 1.5 times the interquartile range. Outlier values are plotted with dots. * = p < 0.05 between LBM BIA and other LBM strategies, including James versus BIA (p = 0.005) and Boer versus BIA (p = 0.004) for normal size patient group and BIA versus BSA (p = 0.003) for muscular patient group. BIA, Bioelectric impedance analysis; BSA, Body surface area; CM, Contrast medium; LBM, Lean body mass
