Summary
This study tracks 50 obese adults (BMI over 32) who are having weight-loss surgery. Researchers use MRI scans and blood tests before and up to 6 months after surgery to measure fat in the pancreas and check how well the pancreas makes insulin. The goal is to see if losing pancreatic fat helps reverse insulin resistance and improve diabetes control.
