Body surface assessment with 3D laser-based anthropometry: reliability, validation, and improvement of empirical surface formulae

PURPOSE: Body surface area is a physiological quantity relevant for many medical applications. In clinical practice, it is determined by empirical formulae. 3D laser-based anthropometry provides an easy and effective way to measure body surface area but is not ubiquitously available. We used data fr...
