  • Patent number: 4321752
    Abstract: An apparatus comprising an elongated scale slidably disposed through a planar base is used to provide a direct measurement of height of fat in subcutaneous tissue in the abdominal area. The scale is inserted into the orifice about a subject's umbilicus until it contacts the umbilicus. The scale is kept perpendicular to the umbilicus while the planar base is slid down over the scale until the bottom surface of the base makes light contact on the surface on the stomach. A reading of the thickness of the fat and subcutaneous tissue can then be taken from the scale.
