Scientific publications
Peer-reviewed validation studies and white papers featuring Prism Labs' scanning technology. Newest first.
Body composition: a consistent, accurate alternative to DXA
Latest internal validation. Prism's mobile scan tracks DXA closely across body fat, visceral fat, and appendicular lean mass — supporting deployment as a clinical alternative.
Accurate metabolic disease-risk phenotyping
Body measurements from mobile 3D scanning and ground-truth tape measurements by a trained anthropometrist were highly correlated.
Accuracy validation of Prism mobile scanning vs DXA
New mobile phone scanning method is suitable to be deployed as a rapid and accessible alternative to DXA scans.
Body composition via US Army method from 3D mobile scan
Evaluation of the US Army method for body composition using Prism's body scanning tech showed acceptable performance at group level.
Precision validation of Prism mobile scanning
New mobile scanning method is as precise as large and expensive multi-camera 3D scanners.
Precision and accuracy validation of Prism mobile scanning
Prism's iPhone scanning tech showed superior precision over other systems (including BIA) and good body composition accuracy against DXA.
Precision validation of single-camera non-rigid method
Prism Labs' 3D reconstruction method is more precise than multi-camera 3D scanners.
Three commercial body scanners vs Prism Gen-1
Precise anthropometric estimates were found across all three commercial scanners benchmarked against Prism's Gen-1.
Accuracy & precision of the Prism Gen-1 scanner
Good correlations between tape vs anthropometric measurements and BF% vs DXA, with no significant bias.
