The BCM - Body Composition Monitor provides a quantitative measure of lean tissue and fat tissue mass because it is able to distinguish muscle mass from fluid overload.
Doctors mainly conduct BCM checks before dialysis. They measure twice, by checking blood pressure and weight first and once again by attaching electrodes to one hand and one foot.
BCM may be conducted even on conservative patients to know if their body has a tendency to retain fluid.
