Approximation of total visceral adipose tissue with a single magnetic resonance image
American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 03/05/07
Ellen W Demerath, et al. – A single axial image measured between the 4th and 5th lumbar vertebrae (L4-L5) is most frequently chosen to approximate total abdominal visceral adipose tissue (VAT) volume, but growing evidence suggests that this measurement site is not ideal...Conclusion: A single MR image located approximately at the L3 vertebra can accurately estimate total VAT volume in blacks and whites of both sexes
