Frequently Asked Questions

Styku is a 3D whole body scanner and analysis tool that uses advanced AI technology to provide accurate body measurements as well as insights into body composition and health risks.

Styku uses infrared sensors and 3D imaging technology to create a detailed model of the body in approximately 35 seconds. The software then analyzes this data to calculate measurements, body fat percentage, and hundreds of other metrics.

Peer-reviewed publications have demonstrated Styku to be more precise and reliable at measuring the body than traditional methods. Body composition, volumes, and all other metrics analyzed have been validated in studies against gold-standard methods like DEXA (Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry) and have been shown to provide highly accurate and trusted results.

It’s recommended to wear form-fitting clothing for accurate results and remove bulky items like jewelry or belts. There are no fasting or lifestyle requirements needed to prepare for a Styku 3D whole body scan.

Yes, medical professionals from all over the world use Styku. Styku analyzes various health metrics like BMI, waist circumference, and numerous others to provide a health screen of over 20 chronic diseases and metabolic blood markers offering a non-invasive means to improve health awareness and literacy.
