  2. Bioelectrical impedance analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bioelectrical_impedance...

    Bioelectrical impedance analysis. Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a method for estimating body composition, in particular body fat and muscle mass, where a weak electric current flows through the body, and the voltage is measured in order to calculate impedance (resistance and reactance) of the body. Most body water is stored in muscle.

  3. Body roundness index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_roundness_index

    By comparison with BMI, BRI quantifies body girth in relation to height, potentially providing more accurate estimates of fat mass. BRI scores range from 1 to 16, with most people between 1 and 10, although people with scores of 6.9 and up – indicating wider, rounder bodies – were found to have a risk of all-cause mortality that was ...

    QuickStats: Mean Percentage Body Fat, by Age Group and Sex – National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, United States, 1999–2004. In males, mean percentage body fat ranged from 23% at age 16–19 years to 31% at age 60–79 years. In females, mean percentage body fat ranged from 32% at age 8–11 years to 42% at age 60–79 years.

  5. Smith chart - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith_chart

    The Smith chart has a scale around its circumference or periphery which is graduated in wavelengths and degrees. The wavelengths scale is used in distributed component problems and represents the distance measured along the transmission line connected between the generator or source and the load to the point under consideration. The degrees ...

  6. Esophageal pH monitoring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esophageal_pH_Monitoring

    Esophageal pH monitoring. In gastroenterology, esophageal pH monitoring is the current gold standard for diagnosis of gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). It provides direct physiologic measurement of acid in the esophagus and is the most objective method to document reflux disease, assess the severity of the disease and monitor the response ...

    The isopleth crosses the scale for T at just under 4.65. A nomogram (from Greek νόμος (nomos) 'law' and γραμμή (grammē) 'line'), also called a nomograph, alignment chart, or abac, is a graphical calculating device, a two-dimensional diagram designed to allow the approximate graphical computation of a mathematical function.

    Body fat percentage is a measure of how much body fat you have in relation to your overall weight. It can be more accurate than BMI at assessing whether someone has a healthy weight and whether ...

  9. Coulter counter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coulter_counter

    A Coulter counter[ 1 ][ 2 ] is an apparatus for counting and sizing particles suspended in electrolytes. The Coulter counter is the commercial term for the technique known as resistive pulse sensing or electrical zone sensing. The apparatus is based on the Coulter principle named after its inventor, Wallace H. Coulter.
