Chemical analysis of cadavers has led to the definition of 'reference' man but diseases may result in significant changes in body composition. By measuring body composition in patient groups the nature of disease progression can be followed and management regimens evaluated. Various techniques are available which attempt to measure body composition in vivo. Several models of body composition have evolved with the introduction of new measurement techniques. A description of these models is presented. The limitations of the models and the techniques adopted for their measurement are discussed.
