Zusammenfassung:The present invention provides a method and a device for locally measuring fat by using bioelectrical impedance. The bottom of the measuring device is mounted with four coplanar measurement electrode points. While measuring the fat, the four electrode points are directly pressed on the skin surface of a to-be-measured position. The electrode points output a weak electric current to a human body and form a complete loop. Thus, different bioelectrical impedances of different electric level measured from the fat and the muscle are used to obtain the content of fat at the to-be-measured position.
