Why hospitals choose InBody over DEXA and traditional BIA

DEXA scans are the gold standard for bone density. For routine body composition assessment, however, they're slow (15–25 minutes), use ionising radiation, can't be moved between wards, and tie up a costly imaging slot.

Traditional BIA scales swing by several percentage points between visits. They use single-frequency analysis and assume body fat distribution from a partial reading. Clinicians lose confidence in the numbers within a few patient visits.

InBody body composition analyzers use Direct Segmental Multi-frequency BIA (DSM-BIA) with an 8-electrode tactile system. The result: 98% correlation with DEXA in published studies, 60-second scans, no radiation, and consistent readings your clinical team can trust across thousands of patients.

Clinical applications

Where InBody fits in your hospital

Body composition data is clinically actionable across multiple specialties. Most hospital deployments serve 4–6 departments from a single device.

Bariatric surgery

Pre-op body composition baseline, monitoring of fat-free mass loss post-op, and tracking of recovery muscle gain. Fat mass loss vs muscle mass loss is a leading indicator of surgical success.

Oncology

Sarcopenia screening using skeletal muscle mass index (SMI), cachexia monitoring during chemotherapy, and treatment response tracking. Muscle mass at baseline predicts chemotherapy tolerance and outcomes.

Nephrology & dialysis

ECW/TBW (extracellular vs total body water) ratio for dry weight assessment in haemodialysis. Phase angle and edema index help personalise ultrafiltration targets and detect overhydration early.

Cardiology

Visceral fat level, segmental fat distribution, and metabolic risk profiling. Visceral fat correlates with cardiovascular disease risk independent of BMI — critical for prevention programmes.

Sports medicine

Athlete profiling, segmental muscle balance assessment, hydration tracking, and return-to-play decisions after injury. The InBody 770s is widely used at sports academies and rehabilitation centres.

Endocrinology & obesity

Diabetes management, GLP-1 therapy monitoring, PCOS body composition tracking, and metabolic syndrome assessment. Visceral fat and skeletal muscle index drive insulin sensitivity outcomes.

Geriatrics & frailty

AWGS 2025 sarcopenia screening, frailty index input, and nutritional intervention monitoring. The InBody S10 is specifically designed for bedridden and immobile elderly patients.

Rehabilitation & physiotherapy

Post-stroke and post-surgical recovery tracking, segmental muscle imbalance detection, and hydration monitoring. InGrip handgrip dynamometer pairs with InBody for full strength assessment.

Health check-ups & preventive care

Adds a measurable, repeatable body composition score to executive health programmes. Patients receive an InBody Result Sheet immediately, increasing perceived value of the check-up package.

Models for clinical use

Different specialties need different capabilities. We help you match the right machine to your patient profile and clinical workflow.

Integrates with your clinical workflow

Every InBody scan automatically syncs to LookinBody Web, our HIPAA-compliant cloud data platform. Clinical teams can view patient trends, generate longitudinal reports, and export data into hospital information systems and EMRs.

For hospitals running their own LIS or EMR, we support custom integrations via secure API. Your radiology, nephrology, and oncology teams can pull body composition data directly into patient charts.

Multi-site hospital groups can centralise body composition data across all locations — standardised reports, consistent measurements, and a single dashboard for clinical leadership.

Get a clinical demo at your hospital

Our clinical team will visit your hospital, demonstrate the device with your patient profiles, and walk through the validation studies relevant to your specialty. Demos available within 7 working days in any major Indian city.
