Bioimpedance Spectroscopy in Clinical Assessment
Description
In this episode of Lymphoedema Insights, host Maree O’Connor is joined by Maureen McBeth, Physical Therapist and Certified Lymphedema Therapist. Maureen is passionate about preventing cancer-related lymphedema and supporting the health of cancer survivors, thrivers, and people living with chronic swelling disorders. Together, they explore the clinical applications of Bioimpedance Spectroscopy (BIS), a technology that measures fluid and tissue composition, tracks changes over time, and provides actionable insights for patient care. From enhancing traditional assessments to motivating patients with measurable feedback, this conversation uncovers the benefits, limitations, and future potential of BIS in healthcare, offering practical ideas for clinicians and anyone interested in improving health outcomes.
