Background There is a subset of individuals with overweight/obesity characterized by a
lower risk of cardiometabolic complications, the so-called metabolically healthy …

Context Cold exposure (CE) has been shown to enhance energy expenditure by activating
brown adipose tissue thermogenesis and metabolism in humans. However, it remains to be …

Purpose Human brown adipose tissue (BAT) has gained considerable attention as a
potential therapeutic target for obesity and type 2 diabetes; however, whether physical …

Medical imaging has evolved from a pure visualization tool to representing a primary source
of analytic approaches toward in vivo disease characterization. Hybrid imaging is an integral …

Objective Human brown adipose tissue (BAT) has gained considerable attention as a
potential therapeutic target for obesity and its related cardiometabolic diseases; however …

Human brown adipose tissue (BAT) volume has consistently been claimed to be inversely
associated with whole-body adiposity. However, recent advances in the assessment of …

Abstract Purpose Nowadays, 2-deoxy-2-[18 F] fluoro-D-glucose ([18 F] FDG) positron
emission tomography (PET)/X-ray computed tomography (CT) is considered the best …

Objectives Neck adipose tissue (NAT) volume increases with general adiposity, with fat
accumulating in different neck tissue compartments. In patients with certain …

Brown Adipose Tissue (BAT) is present in a significant number of adult humans and can be
activated by exposure to cold. Measurement of active BAT presence, activity, and volume …

Context Bile acids (BA) are known for their role in intestinal lipid absorption and can also
play a role as signaling molecules to control energy metabolism. Prior evidence suggests …
