Abstract

1. Objectives This is the comparative study with hand-operated measurement method & Automatic measurement method, in order to convert the automatic measurement method. 2. Methods We measured the body of patients(hand-operated width 5 places and hand-operated circumference 8 places, Automatic width 5 places) and analyzed the anthropometric data dividing into sex, age, BMI. 1057 patients's data are used in the analysis. 3. Results and Conclusions 1) 5th Width variable which was measured during lying down was not a sasang constitutional difference. 2) Diagnostic accuracy rate of the body measurement by Width which was measured during lying down and Width which IBS standing was 40-60%. 3) Diagnostic accuracy rate of Automatic & hand-operated measuring was not a big difference.
