Core Tip We developed an artificial intelligence-based opportunistic chest computed tomography framework that simultaneously quantifies bone mineral density, coronary artery calcification, and epicardial adipose tissue in type 2 diabetes mellitus. The study reveals a linear bone mineral density-epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) volume association, a linear EAT density-severe coronary artery calcification association, and a J-shaped bone mineral density-EAT density relationship, supporting routine chest computed tomography as a one-stop tool for multisystem risk stratification in diabetes.
