Non-intrusive Body Composition Assessment from Full-body mmWave Scans
Body composition assessment (BCA) provides detailed information about the distribution of different tissue types in the body, enabling more precise characterization of individuals than BMI or weight alone. Consistent and frequent BCA would be valuable for personalized medicine, but the gold standard methods for BCA, such as CT and MRI, are only practical for opportunistic monitoring of patients with clinical indications for imaging and are not suitable for routine use in the general population. Here, we consider an imaging modality which is not currently used in medical applications: millimeter wave (mmWave) radar. Commonly used in security settings, mmWave scans enable fast, non-intrusiv...
