Lean Body Mass represents total body weight minus fat tissue mass, comprising skeletal muscle, organs, bone, and total body water.

Clinical Insights & Practical Usage

Lean body mass typically constitutes 70%–90% of total body weight in healthy adult men and 60%–80% in healthy adult women.
Used extensively in critical care and anesthesiology for hydrophilic drug dosing.
