Body analysis Aachen at a glance

Obesity centre Aachen

Body analysis at the obesity centre Aachen

The Weight Doctors® 3D Bodyscan is available at the obesity centre Aachen.

Full details are on the page 3D Bodyscan: the measurement in detail.

  • The 3D Bodyscan measures your body without contact in around 30 seconds.
  • The result: a digital avatar and an understandable overview of your body values.
  • Body composition, circumferences, posture and balance are measured – more than weight alone.
  • The values are a basis for progress monitoring by your specialist.
Process

How the measurement works

The measurement is fully automatic, contact-free and harmless to health. You stand for about 30 seconds on a platform that turns once through 360 degrees. Cameras record your body while LIDAR sensors measure it at 14 measuring points.

This creates a virtual 3D avatar that reproduces your whole body very precisely – unlike many cameras and mirrors, without distortion.

Measured values

What the scan measures

The avatar comes with an understandable overview of your body values. The scan classifies the measured values by sex and age using scientific reference data; a colour scale shows your status for seven important values at a glance.

  1. Weight and body fatHow much you weigh – and what share of it is fat.
  2. BMIThe body mass index: your weight in relation to your height.
  3. WHtRThe ratio of waist circumference to height – it takes into account where the fat is located.
  4. Body measurementsWaist, hips and other circumferences, measured on the avatar – always at the same points.
  5. Fat-free mass and basal metabolic rateWhat your body consists of besides fat and how many calories it burns at rest.
  6. Posture and balanceHow you stand and how you distribute weight on your feet.
