Intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT): Association with other adipose tissue compartments and insulin sensitivity

To quantify intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) of the lower leg as well as to investigate associations with other adipose tissue (AT) compartments. The relationship between IMAT and insulin sensitivity was also examined.
