One of the more common types of bioelectrical impedance analyzers. Stick-on electrodes are placed onto the hand and foot. The outer electrodes supply the electric current, while the inner pair of ...

BOSTON — When it comes to measuring weight, BMI is the acronym everyone loves to hate. Health professionals have long used body mass index as a quick screening tool to fast-track certain patients into ...

Microneedle electrodes can penetrate beneath the skin, allowing for more accurate bioelectrical signal acquisition (such as EEG, ECG, and EMG) from outside the body. Research into their materials has ...

(A) Water molecules exhibit charge offsets in an alternating electric field. (B) Brain lesions such as bleeding foci, cerebral edema, and infarcts alter electrical impedance, which can be detected via ...

A new University of Florida Health study shows that body mass index, or BMI—commonly used to measure obesity and health risk—fails in predicting the risk of future death, suggesting the calculation is ...
