An analysis of measuring pericardial and epicardial adipose volume in normal adults using multi-slice CT
Objective To explore the reference value of pericardial adipose volume(PAV) and epicardial adipose volume (EAV) in normal adults. Methods The parameters of PAV, EAV, subthoracic wall fat thickness (SWFT) and BMI of 200 adluts were measured with 64-slice spiral CT and comparion within groups of both genders and different age was carried out. The data were analyzed with statistics. Results It showed significant difference （P<0.05）between PAV and SWFT and no significant difference between EAV and BMI in different sex groups. Except that PAV and EAV of the group with age greater than 50 was higher than the group less than 50 ages in women (P<0.05), there was no significant difference in the rest of parameters of SWFT and BMI in different age groups in women and all parameters in different age groups in men(P>0.05). Conclusions PAV and EAV can be measured accurately with multi-slice spiral CT and further provide reference for clinic cardiovascular diseases.
