Prediction of visceral adipose tissue magnitude using a new model based on simple clinical measurements

AimsWaist circumference (WC) is a reliable obesity surrogate but may not distinguish between visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue. Our aim was to develop a novel sex-specific model to estimate the magnitude of visceral adipose tissue measured by computed tomography (CT-VAT).MethodsThe model was...
