Brief Summary: The purpose of this pilot research is to study brown adipose tissue a type of fat that increases metabolism burns energy during exposure to cold and how it may contribute to the weight loss observed in cancer
Detailed Description: The purpose of this research is to study brown adipose tissue a type of fat that increases metabolism burns energy during exposure to cold and how it may contribute to the weight loss observed in cancer Many patients affected by cancer lose weight despite normal or increased nutrition It may progress to the condition called cancer-associated cachexia Cancer associated cachexia is defined by an ongoing loss of skeletal muscle mass with or without the loss of fat mass and may negatively affect quality of life and the ability to undergo cancer treatments Metabolism is the breakdown of food by the body into the energy that your body needs
