From: Semi-automated segmentation and quantification of adipose tissue in calf and thigh by MRI: a preliminary study in patients with monogenic metabolic syndrome

Figure 1

Full body coronal magnetic resonance image of the subjects in the study and the assigned survey fields in the mid-calf and mid-thigh. On these survey images the horizontal bars indicate the location of the mid-calf and mid-thigh sections, positioned based on reference anatomical features. The mid-point of the tibia was selected for "mid-calf" measurements and the mid-point of the femur was selected for "mid-thigh" measurements. Subjects from left to right are normal controls, GL2784 and GL2990, followed by the FPLD3 patient (GL0658) and FPLD2 patient (GL0096).
