Metabolik sendromda visseral ve subkutan yağ miktari ve hepatosteatozun bilgisayarli tomografi ile kantitatif değerlendirilmesi

Purpose: We aimed to evaluate visceral and subcutaneous fat tissue its association with hepatosteatosis on computed tomography (CT) scans determine cut-off criteria for metabolic syndrome, measure abdominal obesity directly based the area (VFTA) rather than indirectly waist circumference obtain supportive findings by density measurements in addition VFTA measurements.Materials Methods: The Hounsfield unit (HU) values, visceral, areas HU values of 108 patients diagnosed syndrome (MS) were determined according National Cholesterol Education Program Adult Treatment Panel III 2001 Criteria retrospectively analyzing their CT images taken various reasons. relationships obtained each other MS evaluated.Results: strongest predictor was VFTA, 156.47 cm² most significant value 74.1% sensitivity 58.6% specificity. An -102.99 (VFTD) found as second finding 75% 57.6% higher, increased associated lower VFTD values.Conclusion: important demonstration possibility measuring obesity, which has an place among criteria, circumference.
