Human Body Composition: In Vivo Methods. Physiol. Rev. 80: 649-680, 2000.
In vivo methods used to
study human body composition continue to be developed, along with more
advanced reference models that utilize the information obtained with
these technologies. Some methods are well established, with a strong
physiological basis for their measurement, whereas others are much more
indirect. This review has been structured from the methodological point of view to help the reader understand what can be examined with each
technique. The associations between the various in vivo methods (densitometry, dilution, bioelectrical impedance and conductance, whole
body counting, neutron activation, X-ray absorptiometry, computer
tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging) and the five-level multicompartment model of body composition are described, along with
the limitations and advantages of each method. This review also
provides an overview of the present status of this field of research in
human biology, including examples of reference body composition data
for infants, children, adolescents, and adults.
