A patient's body fat percentage is the total mass of fat divided by total body mass. A number of methods are available for determining body fat percentage, such as measurement with calipers, hydrostatic weighing, whole-body air displacement plethysmography, or bioelectrical impedance analysis. The percentage of body fat in an individual varies according to sex and age.[PMID 12037649]
