Good Afternoon Listserv,
My name is Alexandra Frost and I am currently a graduate student at Georgia Tech getting my degree in Prosthetics and Orthotics. I am currently doing research on Amputees and am in need of more lower limb amputee subjects. My research is to determine an accurate way to calculate amputee BMI without having to use a DEXA scan. I take skinfolds, circumferences, Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis, and a DEXA Scan of the amputees. The whole thing take approximately 1 hour to complete.If you would like more details or have any questions do not hesitate to call me. If anyone knows of someone who would like to participate and can skinfolds it out to Georgia Tech, please contact me or have the potential subject email me.
Thank you,
Alex Frost
