The report of PT 3DFit | 3D Body Analyzer

Visceral Fat: PayaTek 3D Body scanner calculates visceral fat, which increases the risk of various health issues, including gastrointestinal cancers, cardiovascular disease, heart attack, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and fatty liver disease.

Trunk-to-Leg Ratio (TLR): This ratio can provide insight into an individual’s risk for diabetes and fatty liver disease. Identifying the shape and type of body is essential in understanding these risks.

Body Shape Index (ABSI): This indicator is a novel and comprehensive way to evaluate the risks of obesity. An ABSI above 1 dramatically increases the risk of death from obesity-related diseases.

Body Mass Index (BMI): BMI is a simple calculation that uses a person’s height and weight. It is a useful tool to assess whether a person’s weight is within a healthy range. A BMI of 25.0 or more is considered overweight, while the healthy range is 18.5 to 24.9. This measurement is applicable to most adults aged 18-65 years.

Total Body Water: Water is essential for survival, and its availability is crucial for joint, bone, and organ health. Water also plays a significant role in regulating body temperature and delivering nutrients to cells.

Waist-to-Hip Ratio (WHR): This ratio provides a quick evaluation of the fat distribution and can offer insight into a person’s general health. Higher levels of abdominal fat are associated with an increased risk of certain health issues.

Fat-Free Mass (FFM): FFM is the best predictor of energy expenditure in humans. It explains most of the variation in resting metabolic rate and even total metabolic rate under sedentary conditions.

Body Fat Mass: Men and women have different essential fat levels. For men, 2-5% fat is essential, 2-24% fat is considered healthy, and more than 25% is considered obese. For women, 10-13% fat is essential, 10-31% fat is considered healthy, and more than 32% is considered obese.

Muscle Mass: Muscle mass refers to the overall skeletal weight of the body. The appropriate quantity of muscle mass depends on the individual’s objectives and activity levels.

Children’s 3D body scan

It is incredibly important to study the developmental process of children. Developmental disorders can have many side effects in adulthood, such as malnutrition, obesity, lack of concentration, and other physical and mental disorders.

The developmental process of children is typically monitored from an early age using growth charts and expert evaluation. It is possible to scan young children in the PT 3D body scanner, so that, in addition to having a 3D model and tracking volume changes, it is possible to check common growth charts in the reports generated by this device. Furthermore, Comparative reporting allows parents and professionals to compare a child’s growth to age- and sex-specific growth charts from the World Health Organization (WHO) and Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The PT 3D body scanner allows for the scanning of young children, generating 3D models and reports that track volume changes and compare them to common growth charts. Healthcare providers can use a guide to assess physical growth among children and teenagers using WHO and CDC growth charts.

During routine screening, healthcare providers assess physical growth using the head circumference, weight, and length of infants and children up to two years of age, and the weight, stature (also referred to as height), and BMI of children and teens aged two through nineteen years. Although a single measurement plotted on a growth chart can identify nutritional risk, it is insufficient to determine the child’s growth pattern and potential health or nutrition problems.
