Comparative analysis of body composition results of university students obtained using two bioimpedance analyzers
Biody showed significantly higher values than Omron for muscle mass and basal metabolic rate. In women, the differences exceeded the acceptable 5% variability, suggesting that multifrequency devices may offer greater consistency. Although no gold standard was used, Omron could be a valid alternative in men.
