- What is the visceral fat?
Visceral Adipose Tissue (VAT) has been associated with increased risk of developing lifestyle-related
diseases. Accordingly, knowing and periodically checking the estimated VAT accumulation serves as one
factor of a number of factors in assessing the prevention of lifestyle related diseases.
Tanita has developed the technology for measuring the VAT accumulation risk through bioelectrical
impedance analysis (BIA) in comparison with image analysis applied to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI),
in addition to the established technology for measuring the percent of body fat. The VAT accumulation
risk is calculated by estimating the VAT area by the BIA method on the basis of MRI image processing.
This method has a higher correlation than the estimation of the VAT accumulation risk based on BMI or
abdominal circumference (waist circumference), allowing estimation that corresponds more precisely to
individuals.
* The VAT area by MRI is calculated by carrying out an image processing of the cross section of the lumber
vertebra L4-L5 regions.
