ABSTRACT:
An abdominal impedance measurement apparatus includes a plurality of electrodes for measuring an abdominal impedance of a human subject, electrode supporting member for supporting the electrodes, and a frame that is disposable around the human subject. A light emitter is supported by the frame for emitting light beams toward the inside of the frame. A mark is provided at the electrode supporting member. This mark is capable of being irradiated with the light beams.
