背景：内脏脂肪（VF）是心血管疾病、2型糖尿病、乳腺癌等的潜在罪魁祸首。目前只能通过生物阻抗分析仪（BIA）、DEXA扫描仪等昂贵的仪器来估计VF。腰臀比（WHR）的测量可以作为VF的替代指标。因此，本研究旨在评估WHR作为评估VF的适当技术的作用。本研究的目的是发现年轻健康成人内脏脂肪面积（VFA）与WHR、腰围（WC）和身体质量指数（BMI）的相关性。方法：这是一项描述性横断面研究，对西马哈拉施特拉邦215名健康成年人进行了一年的研究。Biospace 720用于评估VF。数据分析采用SPSS 20.0软件。在体内，720用于评估受试者的VF。结果：男性155例（73%），女性57例（27%）。近一半（42%的男性，49%的女性）的VFA高于临界值（即100cm2）， 42%的男性WHR为0.9,56%的女性WHR为0.8。我们发现VFA和WHR之间有很强的相关性(r=0.936, p
BACKGROUND: Visceral Fat (VF) is the underlying culprit for cardiovascular diseases, type 2 diabetes, breast cancer, etc. VF can be estimated at present only by using expensive instruments as Bio Impedance Analyzer (BIA), DEXA scanner, etc. Measurement of Waist-Hip Ratio (WHR) can be used as a proxy for VF. Hence, the present study was done to assess the role of WHR as appropriate technology for assessment of VF. The aim of this study was to find correlation of Visceral Fat Area (VFA) with (WHR), Waist Circumference (WC) and Body Mass Index (BMI) in young healthy adults.METHODS: It was a descriptive cross-sectional study conducted on 215 healthy adults over one year in Western Maharashtra. Biospace 720 was used to assess VF. Data was analyzed by using software SPSS version 20.0. In body 720 was used to assess VF of subjects.RESULTS: Majority 155 (73%) were males and 57 (27%) were females. Nearly half (42% of males, 49% of females) had VFA above cut off value (i.e. 100cm2) and 42% of males had WHR >0.9 and 56% of females had WHR >0.8. We found a very strong correlation between VFA and WHR (r=0.936, p
