APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MEASURING SEGMENTAL BODY FAT USING BIOELECTRICAL IMPEDANCE

摘要

The present invention cuts of bioelectrical impedance fat relates to measuring devices, and more particularly portions of measuring the thickness of subcutaneous fat of the body parts separately, and using the measured thickness of subcutaneous fat in the calculation more accurately measure the body part by body fat Stars invention relates to a bioelectrical body fat meter.; A bioelectrical impedance meter select the current electrode and voltage electrode (31 to 38), the current application circuit and the impedance consisting of a voltage measurement circuit measuring circuit 19, the measurement of the body the portion in contact with the subject's hands and feet of the present invention electronic switch 18, input unit 12, display unit for displaying the measured status, and the results 39, the weight measuring unit 16 for measuring the weight of the input information such as the patient's sex age and physical measurement data, an operation that and consists of a central control section 22 performs control functions in the meter using the bioelectrical impedance measuring a body fat by each part of the body, the subcutaneous fat measuring system for measuring the thickness of subcutaneous fat at least any one place of the body (40 ); and with the subcutaneous fat thickness measuring added fat input unit is input to the central control device; an output and a body fat mass calculated by using the thickness of subcutaneous fat and It consists of; the output section.
