Definition
- The concept of central obesity, or visceral adiposity, was first suggested as an adverse health factor for coronary artery disease as early as 1950, but has only been validated as an important marker for the development of the array of obesity-related medical conditions collectively known as the metabolic syndrome in the last decade. With the advent of computerized tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the significance of visceral “intraabdominal” obesity (rather than subcutaneous fat storage) has been documented in an increasing number of body composition studies.
