In Vivo Body Composition Studies

Presents new findings on body composition issues made possible by increasingly sophisticated measurement technologies that have direct application in a variety of clinical settings, for gynecology, nutrition, and endocrinology New areas of knowledge include the definitions of intervention thresholds in treatment of obesity and under-weight, which is important to clinicians who must balance treatment side effects against health gains. Clinical topics include: body composition changes during the course of AIDS: hydration of fat-free mass; and the ratio of extra to intracellular water. New applications and instrumentation designs for the technologies that have yielded these advances are also presented.Yasumura, Seiichi is the author of 'In Vivo Body Composition Studies' with ISBN 9781573312578 and ISBN 1573312576.
