Brief summary
This study is being done to test whether a HealthReel computer vision-based software application can estimate body fat percentage with equivalent accuracy to a whole body dual energy x-ray absorptiometry scan.
Detailed description
This study is being done to test whether a computer vision-based software application can estimate body fat percentage with equivalent accuracy to a whole body dual energy x-ray absorptiometry scan. The dual energy x-ray absorptiometry scan involves lying on a machine for about 6-10 minutes. It is an open design. The study will also examine whether waist circumference measurement improves the accuracy of the body fat percentage estimate by the computer vision-based application.A total of approximately 492 subjects are planned to take part in this study at one study center.
Interventions
patients will be tested by computer based analysis of a video as well as by dexa scan.
subjects will receive a whole body dual energy x-ray absorptiometry scan to measure their body fat percentage

Eligibility
Inclusion criteria
* Have the ability to provide informed consent before any trial-related activities * Male or female, age \> = 18 at time of signing informed consent * Have access to and ability to use a smart phone to take a 15 second video from their home
Exclusion criteria
* Pregnancy at the time of screening * Known osteoporosis with a T-score of \<-2.5 at hip or spine or pathological fracture of spine * Cirrhosis of the liver, or presence of ascites
Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| variance in body fat percentage between computervision application and dexa scan | 8 months | Variance between body fat percentage measured by smart phone applicaiton compared to body fat percentage as measured by DEXA scan |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| abdominal circumference | 8 months | Analysis will be undertaken to see if the variance between application and dual energy x-ray absorptiometry is reduced when the abdominal circumference is included in the application or whether inclusion of abdominal circumference does not reduce the variance. |
