Abstract
The article presents a study for the evaluation of feasibility of obtaining methods of height and body composition (BC) measurements in children with spina bifida (SB). It states that midlevel ranking of comfort has been given to skinfolds and segmental length. It mentions that arm span used within BodPodR measurements has provided the closest agreement with the DEXA scan.
