Figure 4:

Graphs show that right ventricular (RV) diameter (in centimeters) in patients with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy is associated with epicardial but not mediastinal fat. A, Mediastinal adipose tissue (MAT), which is the fat in the mediastinum but outside of the pericardium, showed poor correlation to RV diameter. B, Epicardial adipose tissue (EAT) index, which is all the fat within the pericardium normalized to MAT, showed moderate correlation with RV diameter. C, D, At regional subanalysis of epicardial fat, RV and left ventricular (LV) epicardial adipose tissue indexed to MAT (RV index, LV index) showed a significant moderate correlation with RV diameter only for LV EAT index.
