Automated and reproducible segmentation of visceral and subcutaneous adipose tissue from abdominal MRI

(1) To develop a fully automated algorithm for segmentation of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) and subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), excluding intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) and bone marrow (BM), from axial abdominal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data. (2) To evaluate the algorithm accuracy and total method reproducibility using a semi-automatically segmented reference and data from repeated measurements.MRI is a widely used in adipose...
