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

DIAGNOSTIC_TESTComputer based vision application by video

patients will be tested by computer based analysis of a video as well as by dexa scan.

RADIATIONwhole body dual energy x-ray absorptiometry scan

subjects will receive a whole body dual energy x-ray absorptiometry scan to measure their body fat percentage

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
variance in body fat percentage between computervision application and dexa scan8 monthsVariance between body fat percentage measured by smart phone applicaiton compared to body fat percentage as measured by DEXA scan

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
abdominal circumference8 monthsAnalysis 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.
