Body Composition Analysis

This is a very accurate method of assessing ones physical status on and above our regular anthropometric measurements like height, weight and BMI. It calculates various parameters which guides Cardiologists, Endocrinologists, Nephrologists, Bariatric Surgeons, Intensivists, Paediatricians And Other Physicians to give a very specific advice on diet, exercise, nutritional supplements and other interventions depending upon the disease involved.

For eg a person with BMI of 24 looks normal but it can be 2 ways

  • 1. Normal muscle mass + normal fat mass = normal BMI
  • 2. Low muscle mass + high fat mass = normal BMI

            The first person is really normal and the second one needs lifestyle changes to correct the imbalance.

            This prevents from all diseases related to the body mass like diabetes, hypertension, heart diseases, musculoskeletal injuries etc.

The various parameters are

1.Body Composition Analysis

        Shows the measurement results and normal range of total body water, protein, minerals and body fat which equal total body weight.

2.Muscle / Fat Analysis

        Graph shows results for weight, skeletal muscle mass, and body fat mass compared to normal range.

3.Obesity Analysis

        Graph shows body mass index and body fat percentage, compared to healthy range important indicators of obesity.

4.Abdominal Obesity Analysis

        The fat of the human body consists of subcutaneous fat and visceral fat. This analysis assesses visceral fat that are closely related to adult diseases by using various indicators.

5.Segmental Lean and Fat Analysis

        Graph shows muscle mass and fat mass of each of the five body parts (left arm, right arm, left leg, right leg, and torso).

6.Body Composition Change

        Historical graph of weight, skeletal muscle mass, and body fat mass, important indicators to assess progress.

7.Comprehensive Evaluation

        Shows body type, body age, basal metabolic rate, calories needed per day, body cell mass, visceral fat mass, degree of obesity.

8.Body Balance Assessment

        Assessement of the balance between the left and right of the body, and the upper and lower parts of the body. It evaluates whether the body maintains balance between the left and right of the body and the upper and lower parts of the body, rather than about the mass of skeletal muscle or fat.

9.Control Guide

        Extracellular water ratio indicates the ratio of extracellular body water to total body water. This index evaluates the body’s water balance and displays the body’s current state as normal, boundary, or abnormal.

10.Segmental Lean Mass

        Muscle mass and status of the five body parts (left arm, right arm, left leg, right leg, torso) compared to the standard weight.

11.Impedance

        Indicates impedance by frequencies and by body parts. Impedance is aresistance generated when electric current passes through the body. Each person has a unique impedance.

12.Blood Pressure Analysis

        Shows the blood pressure data when the device is connected to the hematomanometer provided by ACCUNIQ. This is especially useful because it assesses your obesity level and blood pressure at the same time.
