Evaluating the fat distribution in idiopathic intracranial hypertension using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scanning
Idiopathic intracranial hypertension (IIH) is strongly associated with obesity. We aimed to utilise dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA) to characterise fat distribution, and to evaluate change in fat mass and distribution following weight loss. IIH patients (n = 24) had a similar fat distributio...
