| 1. How about the measurement
principal? |
|
| - |
AccuFat¢ç
based on the optical structure
has been developed to penetrate
up to 50mm from the skin to measure
the thickness of the subcutaneous
fat after detecting the amount
of reflected light from body¡¯s
fat layer and the measured value
is shown to the LCD display of
AccuFat by millimeter (mm).
The below figure 1 is to understand
the sensor part. |
| |
|
| |
 |
|
| |
| 2. Can it be only possible
to get the result through LCD monitor?
Any other information? |
|
| - |
Basically, the thickness
of subcutaneous fat is displayed
by ¡°mm¡± and selectively, body
fat percentage is supported. |
|
| |
| 3. How many values
can be saved to the AccuFat¢ç? How to
transfer the data? |
|
| - |
Can be saved 18
values per 9 persons. Therefore,
totally 162 values can be saved.
The data can be transferred to
PC through USB device and Data
management program will be provided
for user¡¯s convenience. |
|
| |
| 4. Does the AccuFat¢ç
use to measure for whole body parts? |
|
| - |
We can assure the reliability
and reproducibility with ¡°mm¡±
standard for the
following body parts including
triceps, abdomen, suprailliac,
thigh and hip |
| |
|
| - |
For other parts,
it can be measured with ¡°%¡± as
a relative value.
Ex) On the
face part, the value is 16% before
caring and it is changed to 13%
after caring. |
|
| |
| 5. What¡¯s the thickness
can be measured for subcutaneous fat? |
|
| - |
Approximately possible
to measure from 5 ~ 50mm and tolerance
error range is
approximately +/- 2mm. |
|
| |
6. A light is known
to be absorbed by black color. If a
person has a spot or chloasma on the
skin,
how measure for him/her? |
|
| - |
The result value
can be affected by large size
spot or chloasma little bit. |
| |
|
| ¡Ø |
We estimate
that a person having a terrible
skin disease or large spot will
be difficult to use the AccuFat.
We will add ¡°warning words¡± on
the user manual. For example,
the user manual of electrocardiogram
describes ¡°Not available to measure¡±,
if a person has a cardiac pacemakers
in his/her body. |
|
| |
| 7. Regarding Question
No.8, how measure for a dark skin person
or a black? |
|
| - |
In these cases,
there is a need to set up the
new algorithm through clinic but,
in general, it can not be affected
by the skin tone. |
|
| |
| 8. A person being thickly
haired should shave before measurement? |
|
| - |
The
hair may affect the measurement
and needs to be shaved. However,
it is
highly recommended to measure
on a skin without hair. |
|
| |
9. In case of a person
using a body cream generally, he/she
should clean up before
measurement? |
|
| - |
The
wavelength range is not seriously
affected by body cream. |
|
| |
| 10. Who are the major
customers? |
|
| - |
Accufat¢ç
is needs to the field of professional
medical field and health &
fitness
professionals to be able to measure
the thickness of subcutaneous
fat as well as the difference
before/after medical surgery(ex.
lipo. suction), treatment, exercises.
