Abstract :
Electrical impedance measurements are being commonly used to determine slow change parameters such as body composition changes. The need to relocate one or all the electrodes needed to carry out the bioelectrical impedance measurement originates errors in the measured value. To cancel the errors due to geometrical origin, the use of multiple frequency measurements is proposed
