InBody 570
Find out what you're made of!
The InBody 570 composition scanner measures various aspects of a person's body composition. It uses a technology called bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to provide detailed information about the following key parameters:
-
Total Body Water (TBW): This measurement represents the total amount of water in the body, including intracellular and extracellular water. It is typically expressed in liters or as a percentage of total body weight.
-
Lean Body Mass (LBM): Also known as muscle mass, this measurement quantifies the total weight of all non-fat tissues in the body, including muscles, bones, organs, and skin.
-
Body Fat Percentage: This percentage indicates the proportion of your body weight that is composed of fat. It helps assess overall body fat levels, which is valuable for health and fitness monitoring.
-
Body Fat Mass: This is the actual amount of fat in your body, measured in kilograms or pounds.
-
Muscle Mass: In addition to lean body mass, the InBody 570 often provides specific measurements of muscle mass in different body segments, such as the arms, legs, and trunk.
-
Basal Metabolic Rate (BMR): This represents the number of calories your body requires at rest to maintain basic physiological functions like breathing and digestion. It's often used for nutritional planning.
-
Segmental Lean Analysis: The scanner can provide information about the distribution of lean mass and fat in different body segments, helping to identify imbalances or changes in specific areas.
-
Body Water Distribution: It measures the distribution of water within the body, including intracellular water and extracellular water. This information can be used to assess hydration levels.
-
Impedance Values: The device also provides impedance values for different frequencies, which can be used for more advanced analysis by healthcare professionals and researchers.
