作者在计算机断层扫描（CT）测量的基础上估计腹部脂肪分布。脂肪组织的衰减范围定义为被认为是个体变异的平均±2个SDs内的间隔。该方法得到的脂肪面积与计算平面法得到的脂肪面积或以-190 ~ -30 HU的固定衰减范围为参考标准密切相关。虽然不同扫描仪得到的平均CT数分布广泛，但计算得到的脂肪面积几乎相同。该方法可能是一种实用的、标准化的CT检测方法。
The authors estimated abdominal fat distribution on the basis of measurements at computed tomography (CT). The attenuation range for fat tissue was defined as the interval within the mean plus or minus 2 SDs considered to be individual variation. Fat areas found with this method were closely correlated with those obtained by means of the computed planimetric method or with a fixed attenuation range from -190 to -30 HU as the standard of reference. Although the average CT numbers obtained with different scanners were distributed widely, the calculated fat areas were almost identical. This method might be a practical and standardized methods at CT.
