Pre-diabetes is associated with attenuation rather than volume of epicardial adipose tissue on computed tomography

Abstract The volume of epicardial adipose tissue (EATV) is increased in type-2 diabetes (T2D), while its attenuation (EATA) appears to be decreased. Similar patterns have been suggested in pre-diabetes, but data is scarce. In both pre-diabetes and T2D, any independent role of EATV and EATA in diseas...
