Body composition analysis in Taiwan
身體組成分析
Body fat, muscle mass and water percentage.
About this test
Most often done with a scale-like device that sends a weak, harmless electrical current through the body while the person stands on metal foot plates and holds handles. It takes only a short time.
It estimates how much of the body is made up of fat, muscle and water. Doctors use the results to look at body makeup beyond weight alone, such as a high share of fat or low muscle mass.

Before this test
This is general information about how the exam is usually done, not medical advice for you or your family member. Requirements vary by center and by individual health history — always follow the center's own instructions and your own doctor's guidance, especially for any medicine change.
Mention when booking: Mention a pacemaker or implanted defibrillator: the test passes a weak electric current through the body and has traditionally not been recommended with these devices.
