Transform Chronic Disease Programs with Body Composition Data

Discover how Prism is transforming chronic disease management with body composition tracking that identifies metabolic risk before lab values become abnormal. Move beyond BMI and blood pressure to understand true cardiovascular and metabolic health at scale.

Metabolic Syndrome Risk Identification

Identify patients at risk for metabolic syndrome before lab values become abnormal

Body composition markers predict metabolic syndrome earlier than traditional lab values. Visceral fat, body roundness index, and lean mass percentage identify at-risk individuals before blood glucose, lipids, or blood pressure cross clinical thresholds, enabling earlier intervention when lifestyle changes are most effective.

Assess visceral fat, a leading predictor of metabolic syndrome independent of BMI or scale weight
Calculate body roundness index (BRI) and waist-to-height ratio(validated metabolic risk indicators from body scans
Identify patients with metabolically unhealthy obesity despite normal BMI who need intervention
Enable risk stratification to prioritize intervention resources toward highest-risk individuals

Diabetes Prevention & Monitoring

Monitor body composition changes that directly influence insulin resistance and diabetes progression

Visceral fat directly affects insulin sensitivity. Lean mass influences glucose disposal. These body composition changes often precede diabetes diagnosis by years. Prism enables monitoring of these critical markers remotely, supporting prevention and reversal programs with objective outcome data.

Track visceral fat reduction, directly correlated with improved insulin sensitivity and glucose control
Monitor lean mass preservation during weight loss to prevent metabolic decline and maintain glucose disposal capacity
Demonstrate program effectiveness by tracking body composition changes over time with longitudinal data
Support diabetes remission programs with objective outcome data that proves metabolic improvements

Hypertension & Cardiovascular Risk

Assess cardiovascular risk using body composition indicators linked to blood pressure and heart health

Visceral fat contributes to hypertension independent of total body weight. Body fat distribution patterns (trunk vs. limb) predict cardiovascular risk. Prism quantifies these risk factors objectively, enabling programs to monitor cardiovascular health beyond blood pressure readings alone.

Track visceral fat, a key contributor to hypertension and cardiovascular disease independent of BMI
Monitor weight distribution patterns (trunk vs. limb fat) associated with cardiac risk and outcomes
Calculate body roundness index correlated with cardiovascular mortality risk in population studies
Demonstrate blood pressure program effectiveness with body composition improvements that support BP reduction

Visceral Fat Tracking

Monitor the most metabolically dangerous fat depot that can't be seen on a scale

Visceral fat (the fat surrounding internal organs) is the most metabolically dangerous fat depot and a direct contributor to insulin resistance, hypertension, and cardiovascular disease. Unlike subcutaneous fat, visceral fat can't be assessed by BMI or scale weight. Prism quantifies it objectively without expensive CT or MRI scans.

Quantify visceral fat levels objectively without expensive imaging (CT, MRI) or in-person DEXA scans
Track visceral fat reduction in response to diet, exercise, or medication interventions, a leading indicator of metabolic improvement
Identify patients with high visceral fat despite normal BMI (metabolically unhealthy normal weight)
Motivate patients by showing reductions in dangerous "hidden" fat that they can't see in the mirror or on the scale

Treatment Response Monitoring

Measure how patients respond to interventions with objective, continuous body composition data

Treatment effectiveness varies by individual. Some patients respond well to interventions, others don't. Prism enables continuous monitoring of body composition responses to medications, lifestyle interventions, or combined approaches to identify non-responders who need treatment adjustments.

Track body composition changes in response to GLP-1s, metformin, lifestyle interventions, or combination therapies
Identify patients who are losing excessive muscle mass and need intervention adjustments or additional support
Monitor long-term treatment adherence through body composition trends that reflect lifestyle consistency
Generate outcomes data to demonstrate program ROI and clinical effectiveness to payers and stakeholders

Benefits of Using Prism's Body Composition Technology

Beyond BMI

BMI alone misses metabolically unhealthy individuals with normal weight and misclassifies metabolically healthy individuals with obesity. Prism reveals the truth.

Visceral Fat Visibility

The most dangerous fat depot is invisible on a scale. Prism quantifies visceral fat without expensive CT or MRI scans.

Early Detection

Catch metabolic deterioration before lab values cross clinical thresholds. Body composition changes precede disease diagnosis.
