Bone marrow is a fat depot that has recently attracted a considerable research interest due to its unique connections to metabolism and bone health. The present study examines the relationship between changes in bone marrow fat fraction (BMFF), subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), visceral adipose tissue (VAT), liver fat and serum lipid levels after a four-week calorie restriction in twenty obese women. BMFF is shown to have smaller changes after the dietary intervention compared to SAT, VAT, liver fat and serum lipids. BMFF changes are also shown to be dependent on the abdominal tissue distribution before the dietary intervention.
