seca (mBCA & seca TRU)
Seca also uses bioimpedance technology across its medical‑grade analyzers. It is what we use at Women’s Health Practice and we recommend all women dieting with GLP-1 have regular monitoring to help us optimize your body and muscular health
- The seca mBCA line measures body composition using 8‑point Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis. [us.secashop.com]
- seca body composition analyzers provide fast, non‑invasive bioimpedance measurement for medical use. [seca.com]
- Their TRU line uses the same principle: a small alternating current passes through the body to determine resistance, producing clinically validated body composition results. [secatru.com]
- Validation studies show 97% correlation with whole‑body MRI, confirming their accuracy. [secatru.com]
Conclusion: seca = Yes, medical‑grade 8‑point bioimpedance (BIA).
InBody
InBody devices absolutely use electrical bioimpedance.
- InBody technology performs direct multi‑frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) to assess body composition. [inbodyusa.com]
- They use multiple electrical currents across different frequencies to measure intracellular and extracellular water. [inbodyusa.com]
- InBody measures each limb + trunk independently (DSM‑BIA: direct segmental measurement). [inbodyusa….endesk.com]
- They do not use population‑based estimation equations; all results come from measured impedance. [inbodyusa.com]
