The Relationship of Ectopic Lipid Accumulation to Cardiac and Vascular Function in Obesity and Metabolic Syndrome
Obesity, 11/05/09
Ruberg FL et al. – Ectopic storage of lipid in anatomically distinct depots appeared tightly correlated but independent of body size. Site–specific functional abnormalities were observed for pericardial but not periaortic lipid. These findings underscore the utility of MRI to assess individual differences in ectopic lipid that are not predictable from BMI.
