Abstract

Concentric electrode is easy to use and used widely for measuring bio-electrical impedance. But its evaluating region was not investigated in detail Then, the characteristics of concentric electrode were studied from various points of view. In case of use without electrode paste, impedance is determined with the contacting condition between electrode and skin surface over all frequency range. In case of use with electrode past, impedance is composed of stratum corneum in the frequency range of20Hz-lkItz and is mainly composed of subcutaneous tissue in the range of200kHz-1MHz. In the high frequency range, evaluating region of concentric electrode is the area less than the radius or the gap of center electrode.
