BioScan, an indispensable measuring instrument
in the field of Medical
Science |
BioScan a practical, non-invasive,
non-intrusive, highly accurate portable diagnostic
monitoring system for assessing Body Composition,
Nutritional, Fluid monitoring in both health and clinical
patients.
Calibrated for all age groups including
different nationality. BioScan is a simple highly accurate
system, that uses the entered data and the raw data measured
to provide a complete clinical analysis displaying over 35
patients parameters within a few seconds. This information
is provided without the need of complex clinical techniques
like radioisotope dilution.
Additionally features of the BioScan is its ability
to measure and store hundreds of patient data which can be
later down loaded into a PC via a high-speed USB
interface.
BioScan uses scientific patented method of
measuring Electrical Impedance. A total of four electrodes
are used (tetrapolar). 2 electrodes are applied to the hand
and two to the foot. A low-level battery operated electric
current is passed through the body and the
Impedance,
Phase,
Resistance and
Reactance are
measured.
Although the principal of electrical
Impedance has been well established, it is the Phase
sensitive instrumentation like the BioScan that has
increased considerable interest in the estimation of Body
Composition in the field of Human Nutrition, Human Biology,
Physiology and Sports Medicines.
BioScan combines the power of modern electronics and
proprietary digital signal processing to compute physical
modelling of biological tissues. BioScan allows the
estimation of many parameters, including Total Body Water
(TBW), Intercellular Water (ICW), Extracellular Water (ECW),
Fat Free Mass (FFM), Fat Mass (FM), Body Cell Mass (BCM) and
Dry Weight. |
