LOINC description : Body muscle percentage is measured by a variety of methods, including bio-impedance
analysis (BIA) (e.g. Tanita MC-180 MA). Body muscle percentage is equal to a patient's
body muscle mass divided by total body weight. This code represents muscle mass only.
Other instruments or methods may be used to measure lean body weight (e.g. see LOINCs
8342-8 and 8343-6), which includes muscle, bone (skeletal) and organs - everything
but body fat (e.g. LOINC 41982-0).;
