The indicators relating to the amounts of visceral fats including preperitoneal fat thickness were measured from 51 students attending our university, and the significance of the measurement of preperitoneal fat thickness was considered. (Method) The maximum preperitoneal fat thickness (hereafter referred as to "Pmax"), the minimum subcutaneous fat thickness, and the existence or nonexistence of hepato-renal contrasts were measured via ultrasonography. Body fat ratio, visceral fat area and VSR (visceral fat area/subcutaneous fat area ratio) were measured by the impedance method. (Result) Significant positive correlations were found between Pmax and other measurement items in both the all-subject group and the normal weight groups. Regarding the comparison between the group of Pmax 10 mm or more and that of Pmax of less than 10mm, the group of Pmax 10 mm or more was significantly higher in body fat ratio and VSR. The average value of the Pmax plus/minus standard deviation was 7.10 ±2.23mm. From the above, Pmax can be used as an indicator of the visceral fat amount for young women, and it is suggested that attention should be paid to the accumulation of visceral fat of more than 10 mm.
