摘要
The present paper represents a research into the problem of devising cheaper software needed to elaborate a measurement methodology for quantifying visceral fat and creating a tool for standardizing visceral fat measurement as a valid measurement. In this respect we consider promoting the inclusion of VF measurements in the regular computed tomography report. It is a cost-effective and scalable method, though not so laborious, using both free and low cost commercial available software.
