Adjustment of directly measured adipose tissue volume in infants.

Statistically optimal indices for adjusting directly measured ATV for body size are ATV/height(3) in the neonatal period and ATV/height(2) in early infancy. The ratio IA/SCA ATV remains significantly correlated with SCA in both the neonatal period and early infancy; the index IA/SCA(0.6) is statistically optimal at both of these ages.
