(Malavolti M, Mussi C, Poli M, Fantuzzi AL, Salvioli G, Battistini N, Bedogni G. 2003. Cross-calibration of eight-polar bioelectrical impedance analysis versus dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry for the assessment of total and appendicular body composition in healthy subjects aged 21-82 years. Ann Hum Biol. 30(4):380–391. doi: 10.1080/0301446031000095211) provided evidence on the use of a bioelectrical impedance analysis for assessment of body composition. The paper was important it evaluated one of the first widely available devices that took a segmental approach, making it particularly suitable for assessment of sarcopenia.
