2. Bioelectrical impedance analysis - Wikipedia

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

   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.

   DXA scans can also be used to measure total body composition and fat content with a high degree of accuracy comparable to hydrostatic weighing with a few important caveats. [18] [specify] From the DXA scans, a low resolution "fat shadow" image can also be generated, which gives an overall impression of fat distribution throughout the body. [19]

   A DEXA scan requires medical supervision by a radiologist. Total body scans using DEXA give accurate and precise measurements of body composition, including bone mineral content (BMC), bone mineral density (BMD), lean tissue mass, fat tissue mass, and fractional contribution of fat. [5]

   A DEXA scan (which measures lean mass, but not specifically muscle, according to Dr. Neeland) or even an MRI can be the most accurate ways to measure this, but you can also try a scale that ...

7. Hydrostatic weighing - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrostatic_weighing

   Hydrostatic weighing, also referred to as underwater weighing, hydrostatic body composition analysis and hydrodensitometry, is a technique for measuring the density of a living person's body. It is a direct application of Archimedes' principle , that an object displaces its own volume of water.
