B. Core technology
The body composition analyzer InBody720 is precision clinical diagnostic tool featuring the world-leading technology of
Biospace. The advanced technology used in the InBody720 is recognized both in Korea and abroad, as Biospace
obtained CE for exports to Europe and signed a technology royalty agreement with Yamato of Japan. The key features of
the InBody720 built on the advanced technologies patented both in Korea and abroad.
Multi-frequency Measurement
The traditional body fat measurement tools using the impedance uses one,
single frequency at 50kHz to determine the impedance of the human body. On
the other hand, the precision body composition analyzer InBody720 emits
multitude of frequencies including 1kHz, 5kHz, 50kHz, 250kHz, 500kHz, 1MHz,
using the multi-frequency technology that is a way more advanced than the
single-frequency technology. The multi-frequency technology separates the
intracellular water from the extracellular water, minimizing the probability of
errors caused by individual variations in the distribution of the body water or
changes of it over the period. The InBody720 can be reliably used on the
examinee suffering from diseases and is capable of diagnosing diseases such as edema.
The frequency of 5kHz, 50kHz and 250kHz are used to measure the resistance and reactance, components of body
impedance, enabling it to measure the body water accurately. This technology, exclusive to Biospace, overcomes the
limitations with the body composition analysis.
Tetrapolar 8-Point Tactile Electrode
The traditional way was to attach a tape such as ECG electrode to the skin and connect the tape to
the impedance reader. The biggest problem with this methodology is a low level of accuracy,
because the measurements vary with the locations of electrodes and how firmly the electrodes are
attached. The body composition analysis InBody720 uses 8-point tactile electrodes method that is
easy to implement and is known to maintain consistency regardless of variations in the test
environment. The patented technology in the InBody720 takes the accuracy of body composition
analysis.
