Ultrasonic Body Composition Analyzer
- Page Type
- Product Code
- Definition
- Intended to measure thickness of a distinctive tissue layer. Indicated to Calculate the local thickness of a type of tissue [fat, muscle, bone, etc.] at a single location, or at various locations on the body and via algorithms, estimate the amount of local tissue or total body tissue, respectively.
- Physical State
- Hand-held cylindrical (or other shaped) electro/mechanical software-controlled device made of plastic and/or metal components and crystalline transducers.
- Technical Method
- Sends ultrasonic radiation produced by a piezoelectric crystal transmitter/transducer through body tissue at the site chosen and measures the speed of reflection at a piezoelectric receiver/transducer.
- Target Area
- Any external location on the skin or designated locations on the arm, leg, abdomen, chest, etc. that are required to validate the body composition algorithm used.
