Sponsor

Pennington Biomedical Research Center

Enrollment

40 participants

Start Date

Oct 15, 2025

Study Type

OBSERVATIONAL

Conditions

Summary

The aim of this study is to develop a dataset with reference body composition measurements using criterion methods. This dataset will be used to develop new protocols to study patients with cancer. Obtaining measurements of sodium bromide (NaBr), deuterium dilution (D2O), and D3-Creatine in a stratified sample of adults will determine the accuracy (and precision) of the available devices for ECW, TBW, and skeletal muscle mass measurements.
