These results show that our method not only provides excellent agreement with the reference SAT and VAT measurements, but also accurate abdominal wall region segmentation. The proposed combined region- and pixel-based CNN approach provides automated abdominal wall segmentation as well as SAT and VAT quantification with Dixon MRI and enables objective longitudinal assessment of adipose tissues in children during adolescence.
