I read somewhere (can't remember where at the moment), that there are higher cut-off values for people with a BMI greater than 30. For example, where a CAP score of 260 is the cut-off separating S1 (mild fatty liver) from S2 (moderate fatty liver), for obese people (over 30 BMI) the same cut-off is approximately 290. Has anyone else heard this?
