Furthermore, epicardial adipose mass might reflect intra-abdominal visceral fat. Therefore, we propose that echocardiographic assessment of this tissue could serve as a reliable marker of visceral ...

the evidence reported so far suggests that epicardial adipose tissue is anatomically and clinically related to cardiac morphology and function. Indeed, epicardial fat is a metabolically active ...

Our hearts are naturally surrounded by a layer of fat known as “epicardial adipose tissue.” In healthy people, this fat is protective and vital for heart function. But in some people ...
