[QUOTE="Grateful, post: 1621888, member: 438800"] Welcome! As far as I know, the accurate way to figure out the visceral fat is with a particular kind of MRI where the machine is adjusted to highlight fat. Obviously this is an expensive and time-consuming test, so it is understandable that there is no mass screening for this type of thing. There are ways of finding out the muscle/fat balance for the whole body (even some fancy home digital scales that do this) but as far as I know, this will not be able to identify the location of the fat in the body. I hope someone who knows more about this can provide more information. [/QUOTE]
