Mook–Kanamori DO et al. – Systematic differences of up to 24.0cm2 for preperitoneal fat area were observed when analyzing the results described by the Bland–Altman method. This findings suggest that preperitoneal fat can be used as an approximation for visceral fat in children and that measuring abdominal fat with ultrasound in children is a valid method for epidemiological and clinical studies. However, the exact agreement between the ultrasound and CT scan was limited, which indicates that ultrasound should be used carefully for obtaining exact fat distribution measurements in individual children.
