About this trial
With the recent development of image analysis and artificial intelligence, it has become possible to measure the muscle volume from preoperative computed tomography (CT) images. Therefore, in this study, the investigators quantify the muscle volume from preoperative CT images and analyze the correlation with the dose of neuromuscular blocking agent, rocuronium, required for maintaining deep neuromuscular blockade.
