From: Abdominal fat distribution in endometrial cancer: from diagnosis to follow-up
Left: Abdominal fat compartments are derived from computed tomography (CT) scans covering the level of the upper right diaphragm to the level of vertebra L5/S1 are segmented using the software iNtuition (TeraReon Inc San Mateo, USA)
Middle: CT obesity markers derived at primary diagnosis for patient A (63 years, FIGO IIIB, EEC grade 2, BMI 40 kg/m2, alive and well at follow-up) and patient B (86 years, FIGO II, NEEC, BMI 25 kg/m2, recurrence detected 6 months after primary treatment)
Right: Temporal (delta, δ) changes in CT obesity markers from primary treatment to follow-up for patient A and B
BMI, body mass index, EEC, endometrioid endometrial carcinoma; NEEC, non-endometrioid endometrial carcinoma; FIGO, international federation of gynecology and obstetrics; SAV, subcutaneous abdominal fat volume; TAV, total abdominal fat volume; VAV, visceral abdominal fat volume; VAV%, visceral-to-total abdominal fat percentage; WC, waist circumference at L3/L4
