Test Process
A BOD POD Gold Standard body composition assessment is extremely simple, comfortable, and takes only about 5 minutes.
The test sequence is as follows:
- Basic subject information is entered into the computer.
- The BOD POD is calibrated.
- The subject’s mass is measured using the integrated digital scale.
- The subject’s body volume is measured while sitting inside the BOD POD.
- The subject’s Thoracic Gas Volume (TGV) is either measured or a prediction equation is used.
- Test results are displayed, which can then be printed, saved, and/or exported.
