The volume model describes electrical conductance in a cell suspension enabling the total body water (TBW), extracellular water (ECW), and intracellular water (ICW) to be calculated. The body composition model is used for calculating the three relevant body compartments, namely overhydration, lean tissue, and adipose tissue, from ECW and TBW information.
