• Measuring time is only 17 seconds

Body composition analysis for medical use

As the only BIA solution, the seca mBCA 514 is validated against whole-body MRIs (skeletal muscle mass) and 4C model (fat mass) and its high accuracy has been proven in peer-reviewed studies. Measurement results are clearly prepared and provide an immediate overview of the distribution of muscles, fat and water in the body. The fixed hand-held electrodes enable reproducible and precise measurements in daily practice and clinical operation.
