Abstract
The analysis of the body composition is a valuable tool in assessing nutritional status, and provides additional information about health risks and prognosis. Several methods can be used to assess the various body components. To obtain valid data, well standardized measurements are obligatory. As regards interpretation, the investigator has to take into account the assumptions used for the respective method and possible methodological errors.Mesh：
