Abstract

As a recently standardised body composition assessment method in 2016, the impact of client presentation on the reliability
of Brightness-mode Ultrasound (B-mode US) measurements of subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT) thicknesses needed to be
systematically examined for viable field deployment. The collective results of this thesis indicated that standardised B-mode US
may be utilised without accounting for hydration status, prior food or fluid intake or acute exercise, or menstrual cycle phase.
Overall, this thesis provided the evidence to formulate best practices when employing the use of standardised B-mode US to
measure SAT thickness and assess individual fat patterning.
