Bioelectrical impedance analysis, hydrometry and hydrodensitometry for body composition assessment in adult Colombian women

Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a noninvasive method for assessment of body composition with better accuracy, and less inter-observer error than anthropometry. Despite these advantages, reported BIA equations may not be suitable for populations other than where they were developed. The aim of this study was to develop equations for single-frequency (SF) BIA and bioelectrical impedance spectroscopy (BIS) using a three compartment (3C)...
