INTRODUCTION. Bioelectric impedance analysis (BIA) provides a fast, non-invasive, and repetitive method of body composition assessment. The aim of study was to assess the BIA utility for the fat mass estimation in young, healthy, normal-weight women in comparison with a reference method, dual X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). MATERIAL AND METHODS. The study was performed on 145 women aged 22–40 years (mean 31.5 ± 5 years) and normal body mass index (21.8 ± 1.7 kg/m2). Percentage of fat mass as well as fat mass and lean mass were measured by the Tanita BC 420 SMA analyzer (BIA) and LUNAR Prodigy densitometer (DXA). RESULTS. Mean percentage of fat mass was 32.05 ± 5.2% by DXA and 26.05 ± 5.1% by BIA (p < 0.02). Ninety-one ...
