We are studying ultrasonic measurement of the thickness of subcutaneous adiposal tissue layer at several body sites in all generation in order to establish the Japanese standard by sex and age. In this report, the thickness and anthropometric data were studied in 984 boys and 941 girls aged 7-12 years who were school children of four primary schools sampled from Tokyo metroplitan area. The body sites measured were biceps, triceps, subscapula and suprailiac . The results are as following: 1) As to the thickness of subcutaneous adiposal tissue layer, girls were thicker than boys in all ages and body sites measured in this study. 2) Subcutaneous fat thickness tended to be larger with aging in all body sites measured. 3) Frequency distribution tables of subcutaneous thickness by body sites, sex and age were shown respectively. 4) The relationship between subcutaneous fat thicknes in each body sites and height, body weight, relative weight (W/H), Kaup's index and Rohrer's index were examined by partial correlation coefficient controled in age effects. The results were shows below : (1) There were positive correlation between height and the thickness in all sites in these ages. (2) The positive relationship between body weight and the thickness was recognized. (3) Kaup's index got stronger positive relationship with the thickness than the relative weight (W/H) and Rohrer's index.
