Fat Measurement - Manual Measurement Measurement Principle The structure of skin and subcutaneous tissues from top to bottom is: epidermis → dermis → fat layer → muscle layer → other tissues (visceral fat/ skeleton/internal organs, etc.). The outer layer of the muscle is covered with thick fascia, which separates the fat from the muscle.

Measuring Part - Waist Waist measuring position: − Standing posture − Find the midpoint from the navel to the waist (point C as shown in the figure), the area from 2cm next to point B as the starting point to point A is the measurable area.
Page 18
Measuring Part - Abdomen Abdomen measuring position: − Standing posture − Slide to the right in the rectus abdominis area above the navel, with the left rectus abdominis as the starting point; − The bow shape on the image is the rectus abdominis, and the subcutaneous fat layer is above the rectus abdominis;...

Measuring Part - Upper Arm Arm measuring position: − Keep your upper arm level and forearm vertical; − Find the midpoint between elbow and armpit (point B shown in the figure). Point B is the starting point, and the area from point B to point A is the measurable area. Tips: Compared with the waist, the subcutaneous fascia of the arm is more and more complicated.

Fat Measurement - Intelligently Automatic Reading and Measurement Z2 Pro device supports professional manual measurement by default. Click My → Settings in the tab bar at the bottom of the APP. After Automatic Fat Measurement is enabled in the setting page, Z2 Pro will intelligently identify the fat layer and measure the thickness of the fat layer.

Intelligent reading and measurement interface: In the figure, 1.4cm (avg) means that the average thickness of the fat layer at the current Thigh fat thickness in current area is position is 1.4cm. Release the button after seeing the interface as shown in the left picture. The measurement Thin Compact Muscle...

Muscle Measurement Z2 Pro muscle measurement is similar to manual fat measurement. Acquire the muscle image, and then manually measure the thickness of the muscle layer on the image. At present, the APP provides muscle measurement functions for four parts: rectus abdominis for abdomen, biceps brachii for upper arm, rectus femoris for thigh, and musculus gastrocnemius for shank.

Image Interpretation Example 1 of normal image: Skin and fat layer Dividing fascia between fat and muscle Fascia between the muscles Muscle layer and internal tissues below the muscle layer The above image is good. The fat layer is very clean and does not interfere with the fascia.
Page 39
Example 2 of normal image: Skin and fat layer Fascia in fat layer Dividing fascia between fat and muscle Muscle layer and internal tissues below the muscle layer The above image is also good. There are some short, intermittent white fascia in the subcutaneous fat layer.
Page 40
Example 1 of wrong image: Fascia is not continuous, thick and bright This image is not qualified. There are many lines on the image, there is no one continuous, thick and bright line, and the naked eyes and the algorithm cannot identify. Solutions: 1) Ensure that the coupling agent is sufficient during measurement;...
Page 41
Example 2 of wrong image: fascia This image is not qualified. There are several continuous lines of the same thickness and more small interference lines on the image, and the structural features are not obvious, so it is difficult to identify. Solutions: Reproduce the image.
Image Depth Setting Image depth refers to the maximum depth distance within the human body that Z2 Pro device can detect during image acquisition. If the fat layer is thicker or the tissue to be detected is deeper, the larger depth should be set. Z2 Pro is provided with three adjustable depths: -Depth of 5.6cm: Meet the detection requirements of Cancel...
Image Grayscale Setting The setting of image grayscale will affect the brightness of ultrasonic image. If the image grayscale is higher, there will be more white areas on the image and the image will be brighter; if the image grayscale is lower, there will be fewer white areas on the image and the image will be darker.

Q: The firmware or Bluetooth software upgrade failed A: 1) Confirm that Z2 Pro device and mobile phone are properly connected during the upgrade; 2) Confirm that the network connection of the mobile phone is normal;...
Page 51
A: Z2 Pro device performs manual measurement by default. After image acquisition, you need to manually click Enter Measurement to adjust the ruler for measurement. Z2 Pro cannot measure the result during intelligent measurement mostly because the image features are not obvious and the algorithm does not identify the fat layer, or even the ultrasound image is not produced.
Page 52
A: More coupling agent is not always better. Too much coupling agent may cause errors. The coupling agent is easy to dry. If the coupling agent is dry on the skin during measurement, add it in time to avoid affecting the measurement. The coupling agent can be purchased from Marvoto website.
