Objective To evaluate the use of ultrasonography (US) as an alternative to dual-energy x-ray
absorptiometry (DXA) to predict the percentage ratio of android/gynoid (A/G) fat mass …

Body fat distribution is gender specific: men tend to accumulate adipose tissue in the
android region, whereas women tend to do so in the gynoid region. The aim of the study was …

Background As the number of individuals with obesity increases, so too will the demand for
a precise, cost-effective and safe method to better risk-stratify this heterogenous population …

The effect of weight loss on body fat distribution was examined through central obesity
indexes (COI), which are android/gynoid tissue and fat mass ratios determined by dual …

OBJECTIVES: We investigated which abdominal adiposity measurements, waist
circumference (WC), dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA)-measured abdominal fat, and …

Objectives To determine the extent of agreement between a handheld ultrasound (US)
attached to an android tablet and the reference method dual energy x-ray absorptiometry …

Background Whole body dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) can simultaneously
measure both regional fat and non-fat mass. Android-to-gynoid (A/G) ratio measured by DXA …

OBJECTIVE: To get accurate measurements of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) using dual
energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). DESIGN: DXA and anthropometric data and their …

Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is one of the major tools for assessing the whole
body and regional body composition and body adiposity. Various body composition …

Recently, a fully automated method for segmenting abdominal fat into subcutaneous fat and
visceral fat (VF) within the android region using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) has …
