1) To calibrate DXA measures of abdominal adiposity against MRI in a subset of the Hyderabad DXA Study population. 2) To use a combination of basic and DXA derived measures to find the best simple anthropometric measures for assessing whole body and abdominal adiposity in the Hyderabad DXA Study. 3) To use derived measures of adiposity to investigate associations with obesity related genetic variants in a larger Indian cohort. 4) To identify any interactions between genes and environment in the development of DXA measures of adiposity.
