This document provides an overview of Biospace and its body composition analysis technology. It discusses [1] how Biospace's InBody analyzer uses multi-frequency bioimpedance analysis to separately measure intracellular and extracellular water, improving on previous single-frequency devices. It also notes [2] how InBody measures impedance in segments of the body rather than assuming a single cylindrical shape, and [3] uses 8 tactile electrodes rather than 4 for more accurate measurements. The document lists Biospace's customers in Finland which include universities, research institutions, fitness centers, and spas.

2. Biospace Overview
With the continuing increase in standard of living, the focus on quality of
life has amplified in recent times. In particular, obesity is a health issue
featured in the mass media that has been warranting more attention than
ever before. More and more people are coming to realize that obesity is at
the root of all habitual illnesses, and because of this correlation interest in
obesity treatment is on the rise. 1996 Established Biospace Co., Ltd.

3. Message from CEO
In recent years, people have come to recognize that obesity causes a wide range of
health problems. Unfortunately, there are few ways for the smart detection of obesity.
As the most effective and scientific way to identify obesity, body composition analysis
at this time reminds us of the critical importance of novel technology.
Over the past decades, technology has been developed analyzing body composition
based on the difference in electrical conductive properties of various biological tissues.
Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) has many advantages over other methods in
that it is safe, rapid and easy to perform, and requires little training for operators. Thus,
this technology has become widely used in hospitals, health and fitness centers, and
in field studies.
Nevertheless, in detecting acute or chronic changes in body composition, the clinical
usefulness of conventional BIA has been limited to healthy average people. Due to
localized fluid accumulation or loss and inability to assess the distribution of water
accurately between intracellular water (ICW) and extracellular water (ECW), there had
been difficulties applying it to patients, the elderly, children and athletes. However,
they are the very people who really need to know their body composition.
Biospace has reinforced conventional BIA. These improvements were proved with lots
of clinical research papers. Because the body is not an isotropic conductor with
uniform cross-sectional areas, we consider the body as five cylinders; four limbs and
the trunk. The amount of body water is measured segmentally. Multi-frequency Ki-Cul Cha Ph.D
technology makes it possible to measure ICW and ECW separately. Thus, there would
be no needs of empirical estimation to compensate inaccuracy, avoiding insensitive 1996 – CEO, Biospace Co., Ltd.

current and voltage.
With Conventional BIA, results are distorted by statistics, based on personal data such as
age, sex, body type, etc. Conventional BIA devices only partially measure body composition
and the rest is statistically determined. Although it gives reasonable results for people of the
norm, its accuracy is very low for children, elderly, patients, and athletes. However, InBody’s
DSMF-BIA technology has overcome the limitations of the conventional BIA method. It
accurately assesses intracellular water using multiple frequencies and measures
bioimpedance of the trunk as well as the rest of the body. InBody uses actual measurements
to yield accurate results regardless of empirical estimations. Examples below show some
empirical estimations that are used in conventional BIA devices.
8-Point Tactile Electrode
Our tetrapolar 8-point tactile electrodes technology has made it possible to enhance
accuracy and reproducibility by fixing the measuring points of current and voltage.
The use of 8 tactile electrodes instead of the standard 4 gives the InBody the
ability to measure the body segmentally instead of assuming that the body is a
single cylinder. The InBody uses overlapping currents to isolate specific body parts
and assess their LBM (lean body mass) independently of the others. Other
analyzers measure only one portion of the body and translate the results to a
generalizable value for the entire body.
The use of fewer electrodes results in less accuracy and the need for external
variables to aid in the analysis. As you can see, the current does not travel through Sample example 1 Sample example 2

“We purchased a Biospace InBody machine for our weight control center in August of 2005.
I must say that the response has been outstanding.
It allows us to determine protein needs by making sure that our patients are losing fat and not muscle.
We also measure intra- and extracellular fluid.
This has been a tremendous tool for us to help patients better understand their weight program and
comply with the protocol.”

“The InBody has been an incredible asset to our practice.
The information provided by the machine is both very accurate and helpful to patients.
We have had several patients who had underwater weighing prior
to using our InBody and the results were almost identical.
In addition, the InBody s impedance index allows a patient
to fine tune their work-out to create better body proportion.
The Biospace unit is simple to use, takes very little time, and yet provides a very impressive report.
The machine has worked flawlessly since we purchased it.
In addition, the support staff has been very helpful in answering questions
and educating us on interpreting results.
We previously used a handheld device but found the results to be very inaccurate,
non-reproducible and provided only BMI and percent body fat.”
