This method enables measurement of impedance per segment – in other words for the TANITA not only uses impedance values in the whole body, right leg, left leg, right arm or left arm – by switching the points at which the current is applied and conventional way, but also adopts reactance values the voltage is measured. - Page 28 •Reliability of body composition estimations based •Factors that affect measurement integrity on the multi-frequency 8-electrode BIA method The BIA method is used to measure impedance and calculate body composition based on the results.
