BOD POD

The BOD POD Gold Standard Body Composition Tracking System is an air displacement plethysmograph that uses whole-body densitometry to determine body composition (body fat and fat-free mass) in adults and children and can accommodate a wide range of populations.

A full test requires only about 5 minutes and provides highly accurate, safe, comfortable, and fast test results. Each BOD POD Gold Standard is a complete turnkey system with a dedicated computer system, the ability to measure thoracic gas volume (TGV), and data management capabilities.

MAIN PARAMETERS 

• Body Composition (Bodyweight, Body volume, Body density, Body Fat, Body Fat-Free) 

• Lung Volumes (TGV) 

• Resting Energy Expenditure (estimate)

• Flexibility in testing special populations.

• Completely non-invasive: has eliminated the invasiveness of Dual Energy X-Ray Absorptiometry (DXA) and it is, therefore, suitable for frequent, longitudinal tracking of body composition and metabolic changes over time.
