How Analyze was Used
“Magnetic resonance imaging was used to measure abdominal subcutaneous (SCATabd) and visceral (VAT) adipose tissue areas on a watersuppressed T1-weighted transaxial image located at the L4 vertebral level. Leg subcutaneous adipose tissue (SCATleg) and intermuscular fat (IMF) were assessed from a single T1-weighted transaxial slice at the same axial position as the IMCL measurements. Areas of SCAT, VAT and IMF were calculated by a semiautomated method, using a threshold map in conjunction with manual input to distinguish between compartments using the software Analyze (AnalyzeDirect, Overland Park, KS, USA).”
