Objective
Given the importance of body fat distribution in chronic disease development, feasible methods to assess body fat are essential. This study compared dual‐energy x‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) in measuring visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue (VAT and SAT) with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).
Methods
VAT and SAT were assessed using similar DXA and MRI protocols among 1,795 elderly participants...
Objective
The aim of this study was to investigate whether digitally re‐posing three‐dimensional optical (3DO) whole‐body scans to a standardized pose would improve body composition accuracy and precision regardless of the initial pose.
Methods
Healthy adults (n = 540), stratified by sex, BMI, and age, completed whole‐body 3DO and dual‐energy X‐ray absorptiometry (DXA) scans in the Shape Up! Adults...
Objective
The relationship of diet quality assessed by established indices (HEI‐2010, AHEI‐2010, aMED, DASH) with adiposity measures was examined, especially visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and nonalcoholic fatty liver (NAFL).
Methods
Close to 2,000 participants of the Multiethnic Cohort completed validated food frequency questionnaires at cohort entry (1993‐1996) and clinic visit (2013‐2016) when...
