About the Body Volume Index (BVI)
The **Body Volume Index (BVI)** is a modern clinical marker designed to replace BMI. BVI focuses specifically on where fat is stored on the body, evaluating visceral fat volume (abdominal area) relative to peripheral body segments. Visceral fat concentration in the stomach area is a strong indicator of vascular risk factors.

Yes. This is commonly referred to as 'normal-weight obesity' or 'skinny fat', where low muscle mass masks high abdominal visceral fat.
