Multiple regression equations for estimating VAT from L1-L4 ROI.

	Regression equation	R_adj²	SEE (cm²)
L1_L4 fat mass	VAT=0.010 L1-4FM^* + 12.653	0.50	11.51
L1_L4 fat mass+Gen	VAT=0.011 L1-4FM^* − 3.40Gen^* + 11.921	0.54	11.08
L1_L4 + GENDER + (GENDER × L1_L4)	VAT= 0.010 L1-4 FM^* + 1.883Gen − 0.004(Gen × L1-4 FM)^* + 13.45	0.59	10.39
