What Is an Adipometer?

An adipometer, also known as a skinfold caliper, is a tool used to measure subcutaneous fat. By pinching the skin at specific points, it helps assess a patient’s nutritional or fitness status. It is a reliable and widely used alternative to more expensive fat analysis technologies.

Digital vs Manual Body Fat Calipers

Digital adipometers offer fast, accurate readings with automatic display, ideal for high-volume consultations. Manual calipers remain a dependable choice for professionals looking for affordability and portability. Both types provide precise data when used correctly and consistently.
