The cross-sectional area (mean ± SE) of abdominal fat using computed tomography at the fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae. The area of intra-abdominal fat (IAF) and subcutaneous fat (SQF) was compared between healthy dogs (A) and dogs with heart disease (B). The subcutaneous fat was identified inside the black dashed line and outside the red dashed line. The area of intra-abdominal fat was identified inside the red dashed line.
