2 Fig. 1 Quantitative measurements of visceral adiposity. Measurement of pernephric fat thickness at the level of the renal vein (A). Measurement of the subcutaneous fat area (B). Measurement of the visceral fat area (C). The V/S ratio is calculated by dividing the measurement of C by the measurement of B. Subcutaneous and visceral fat area measurements are calculated at the level of the renal vein.
