Abstract
A body fat measurement apparatus, according to the present invention, comprises: an electrode unit which has a plurality of electrodes and can be worn around the body of the subject to be measured; a first measurement unit which is for obtaining a three-dimensional image of the subject's body part to be measured; a second measurement unit which is for measuring the impedance by means of injecting a current into the electrodes; and a control unit which is for restoring the conductivity and permittivity images of the subject by means of the three-dimensional image and the impedance value and thus separately calculating the amount of subcutaneous fat and visceral fat. According to the present invention, measurement accuracy of the subcutaneous fat and visceral fat can be improved even at a low cost.
