人体脂肪分布测量与肥胖并发症

Measurement of adipose tissue distribution and obesity complication

肥胖的多种并发症与腹内或内脏的脂肪组织分布量之间有非常密切的联系。对肥胖的研究重点已从单纯的脂肪量和肥胖程度转移到脂肪组织分布上。采用CT方法可直接对全身脂肪组织或皮下、腹内等区域性脂肪组织分布进行准确定量测量。特别是近年来出现的多层螺旋CT,可以通过其容积扫描直接实现人体某区段脂肪组织容积的定量测量,缩短了测量时间,提高了测量的准确性。

It is the extremely close relation between many kinds of obesity complications and adipose tissue distribution in the endo-abdominal or the internal organs. The study focus of obesity is adipose tissue distribution or not the pure fat quantity and the obese degree. Using the CT method, we can directly measure adipose tissue distribution in whole body or hypodermic, endoabdominal and so on regional. Because the multi-layered screw CT appeared in recent years, it is possible to directly measure adipose tissue in some sector of human body through its volume scanning. We can reduce the measurement time and enhance the measurement accuracy.
