Similar term(s): bioelectrical impedance analysis, BIA.
Definition:
Bioimpedance is the response of a living organism to an externally applied
electric current. It is a measure of the opposition to the flow of that electric
current through the tissues, the opposite of electrical conductivity.
Measurement of bioimpedance in humans and animals – also referred to as
bioelectrical impedance analysis – has proved useful as a non-invasive method
for measuring such things as blood flow and body composition.
