Losing Weight or Dieting with the Help of a 3D Body Scanner
There is no need for inaccurate manual measurements with this 3D body scanner. The device provides body dimensions and sizes quickly and with high accuracy. Beyond basic measurements, it provides specialists with essential health metrics that cannot be measured manually. These metrics are crucial for designing personalized diet and exercise plans, including:
✔ Body fat percentage

Other key indicators essential for designing personalized diet and fitness plans
The PT-3DFit scanner generates comprehensive reports by comparing current body data with previous test results. This feature allows individuals to visualize their transformation over time, making progress tangible and boosting motivation to stay on track with their weight loss or fitness journey.
How Does the 3D Body Scanner Provide Health Parameters to the User?
The 3D body scanner determines health parameters by analyzing various biometric factors such as height, age, weight, gender, and body dimensions. The main part of the analysis is obtained by using the density calculation formula and the mass-to-volume ratio, allowing for a highly accurate assessment of body composition.
Given that different substances have different volumetric masses; for example, the volumes of one kilogram of muscle and one kilogram of fat are different from each other. After years of scientific research, validation with academic formulas, and testing against global standards, the PayaTek 3D scanner software has been refined to achieve over 96% accuracy. Through AI optimization, it now offers one of the highest correlations with DEXA scans, making it one of the most reliable body composition analysis tools available.
What is the Difference Between a 3D Body Scanner and a Body Composition Device?
BIA-based devices have limitations in providing information on body size and dimensions and are unable to extract anthropometric information. Furthermore, factors such as the examiner’s physical condition, hydration status, and presence of foreign objects in the body can significantly affect the device output.
Additionally, BIA devices are not suitable for pregnant women or individuals with implanted medical devices, as the technology relies on electrical impedance, which may interfere with medical implants or produce inaccurate readings. In contrast, a 3D body scanner provides a scientifically validated and highly reliable method for measuring body fat percentage, body dimensions, and composition. Unlike BIA devices, which rely on electrical signals, a 3D body scanner captures precise body measurements through high-resolution optical scanning and AI-driven calculations. This ensures consistent and accurate results, regardless of hydration levels or external conditions.

The Report of PT 3DFit | 3D Body Analyzer
The PT-3DFit 3D Body Analyzer provides a detailed, data-driven assessment of body composition and health indicators. By analyzing key biometric parameters, it helps users understand their physical health, track body composition changes, and assess potential health risks.
Key Health Metrics Analyzed by PT-3DFit:
Visceral Fat
The PayaTek 3D Body Scanner calculates visceral fat, a critical factor linked to serious health risks such as:
- Gastrointestinal cancers
- Cardiovascular disease, heart attack, and stroke
- Type 2 diabetes
- Fatty liver disease
Trunk-to-Leg Ratio (TLR)
- This ratio helps assess risk factors for diabetes and fatty liver disease.
- Determining body shape and type is essential for understanding these risks.
Body Shape Index (ABSI)
- A novel, comprehensive indicator for evaluating obesity-related risks.
- An ABSI score above 1 significantly increases the risk of mortality from obesity-related diseases.
Body Mass Index (BMI)
- BMI is a standard measurement that uses height and weight to assess whether a person’s weight falls within a healthy range.
BMI Classification:
- 5 – 24.9 → Healthy range
- 0+ → Overweight
- Below 18.5 → Underweight
Applicable to most adults aged 18-65 years.
Total Body Water (TBW)
Water is essential for survival and plays a key role in:
- Joint, bone, and organ health
- Body temperature regulation
- Nutrient delivery to cells
Waist-to-Hip Ratio (WHR)
- Provides a quick evaluation of fat distribution.
- Higher abdominal fat levels are associated with increased health risks.
Fat-Free Mass (FFM)
- Best predictor of energy expenditure in humans.
- Directly linked to resting metabolic rate and total energy expenditure under sedentary conditions.
Body Fat Mass
Essential fat levels differ for men and women:
Men:
2-5% → Essential fat
2-24% → Healthy range
25%+ → Obese
Women:
10-13% → Essential fat
10-31% → Healthy range

- The optimal amount of muscle mass varies based on individual goals and activity levels.
Children’s 3D Body Scan: Tracking Growth & Development
Monitoring child development is essential, as growth disorders can lead to long-term effects such as malnutrition, obesity, lack of concentration, and other physical and mental health issues in adulthood.
Why Monitor Child Development?
Experts typically evaluate children’s growth patterns by tracking them with growth charts from an early age. The PT-3D Body Scanner provides a modern, precise method for monitoring and analyzing a child’s growth over time.
Key Benefits of PT-3D Body Scanner for Children:
1- 3D Model & Volume Tracking
- The scanner generates a high-precision 3D model of the child’s body.
- Enables tracking of volume changes over time.
2- Comparative Growth Chart Analysis
The device compares a child’s growth metrics to age- and sex-specific growth charts from:
- World Health Organization (WHO)
- Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)
3- Growth Pattern Analysis & Tracking
During routine screenings, healthcare providers use the PT-3D Body Scanner for accurate growth pattern tracking. While a single growth chart measurement can help identify nutritional risks, it may not be sufficient to determine long-term growth patterns. The PT-3D Body Scanner generates detailed reports, enabling professionals to detect potential health or nutritional concerns early.
The PT-3D Body Scanner integrates 3D scanning technology to ensure precise and comprehensive growth monitoring, making it a valuable tool for healthcare providers, parents, and researchers in child development.

Do You Run the 3D Body Scanner Test with or Without Clothes?
It is advisable to wear tight-fitting clothing during the 3D scanner test for optimal results, as loose clothing can distort the accuracy of the scan by creating folds or shadows that may obscure parts of the body. However, it’s important to note that the scanner does not penetrate clothing—it only captures external body surfaces. Therefore, wearing clothing during the scan will not significantly impact accuracy, as long as it fits snugly to the body. Ultimately, the choice of clothing is based on personal comfort and preference.
Key Considerations:
✔ Tight-fitting clothing is ideal to ensure precise measurements.
✔ Loose clothing may create distortions by adding unnecessary volume to the scan.
✔ The decision to wear clothing is based on personal comfort—users can choose what feels best for them.
By following these simple guidelines, users can ensure a more accurate and reliable scan experience with the PT-3D Fit Body Scanner.
