In vivo measurement of changes in body composition: description of methods and their validation against 12-d continuous whole-body calorimetry.

The accuracy of a variety of in vivo body-composition techniques (densitometry, total body water, skinfold thicknesses, whole-body impedance and resistance, body mass index, and two three-compartment models) was assessed by comparison with fat balance. Three subjects were overfed and three underfed...
