With increasing prevalence of metabolic disorders like
diabetes, the importance of predictive markers is
gaining attention. In this study, MRI based visceral and
subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), and intermuscular
adipose tissue (IMAT) as an index of metabolic health
have been evaluated in Asian Indian population (n = 47),
known to have high predisposition to type 2 diabetes.
The results were also correlated with biochemical
metabolic risk indices and other body composition
analysis techniques like DEXA and BIA. SAT at L3 level
with maximum correlations and also IMAT at midthigh
could be predictive markers in identifying risk
population for metabolic disorders.
