Nutriguard-MS measures bioelectrical impedance at 5, 50 and 100 kHz. Standard testing uses four adhesive electrodes on the hand and foot of one side. Body-composition and water estimates are evaluated from resistance and reactance using the relevant software; regional mode requires the appropriate procedure.
Tanita SC-240MA: when to consider it
SC-240MA is a standing BIA platform analyser. It uses one 50 kHz frequency and a 200 kg scale. The manual’s specification table lists weight, body-fat percentage and BMI; separate arm and trunk results are not documented.

Fat-free mass is not pure muscle mass. A single result is not a diagnosis. Different devices and similarly named metrics may use definitions that are not interchangeable.
