Comparison of visceral fat area measured by CT and bioelectrical impedance analysis in Chinese patients with gastric cancer: a cross-sectional study

Abstract

VFA measured by BIA showed satisfactory reliability with that measured by CT. However, the absolute values of the two methods were not interchangeable. The cut-off value for VFA by BIA in diagnosing visceral obesity was 81 cm² for patients with gastric cancer in the Chinese population.
