Abstract：Infant body composition is an important index to evaluate infants’ nutritional status. By infering nutritional status through body composition, nutritional problems can be found in time and nutritional interventions can be formulated. However, the unique physiology and behavior of infants bring some challenges to the assessment of body composition, and the range of methods to measure infant body composition is relatively narrow. At present, a series of studies have been carried out on the assessment of infant body composition, and some progress has been made. This article reviews the research and application progress of commonly used infant body composition assessment methods. These methods mainly include anthropometry, air displacement plethysmography, dual-energy X-ray absorption, bioelectrical resistance, isotope dilution, and magnetic resonance imaging.
