Abstract
Body composition assessment might be an essential tool in clinical studies. Over the metabolic diseases, body composition assessment can play an important role in sports medicine and in old patient care. Numerous methods are available, including simpler and more cost-effective ones, as well as more expensive but complex procedures. Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry is considered the gold standard method for body composition assessment in clinical practice. However, the increasing precision of bioelectrical impedance-based devices might provide reliable alternatives. In our article, we summarized the basic characteristics of methods for determining body composition, with particular emphasis on the procedures most widely used in clinical practice. Orv Hetil. 2025; 166(4): 130–138.
期刊介绍：
The journal publishes original and review papers in the fields of experimental and clinical medicine. It covers epidemiology, diagnostics, therapy and the prevention of human diseases as well as papers of medical history.
Orvosi Hetilap is the oldest, still in-print, Hungarian publication and also the one-and-only weekly published scientific journal in Hungary.
The strategy of the journal is based on the Curatorium of the Lajos Markusovszky Foundation and on the National and International Editorial Board. The 150 year-old journal is part of the Hungarian Cultural Heritage.
